Unlike the many STEM-focused boxes on the market, these kits provide hands-on lessons in social-emotional skills, also known as SEL. The traits—such as empathy, emotional stability, teamwork, strong communication, resilience and problem-solving—are critical to growth and development. Finally, a subscription box service to curb toddler tantrums and tween door-slamming!
We like the boxes but now that school has restarted we still have ones from prior months that my son hasn’t finished.
Our first box from Superpower Academy turned out to be a hit! It has a positive and encouraging message about personal development, which we liked. This month’s activities are all about flight, and my kids enjoyed everything from the story to the projects and even the on-page activities. They were also quite happy about how the glider turned out. It’s just our first box, but we’re already impressed! It has an exciting feel overall, a perfect box for the imaginative ones or just about any kid who loves trying out new things – or those that need a little help in that direction. We loved the accessible, kid-friendly approach to the growth mindset!
My child needs to be older to take full advantage of the activites in the box. Will reassess at a future date.
Delightful! The glider activity itself was perfect for my eight year old son and me to spend some quality time together away from his iPad and our TV. While I can say Superpower Academy is somewhat similar to Kiwi crate, it also includes life lessons that will help make kids more confident and successful in general. Given all the outside influences on my kids today, I think Superpower Academy is a great choice to help supplement my parenting to help set my kids up for success in the future.
We have tried a few of these STEM subscription boxes and I think that this one is our favorite. J. had so much fun putting the pieces together and reading about what the feeling finder does and how it works, he really loved the comic book to with it also. What I love the most about this particular box as a parent is the focus on promoting a growth mindset, mindfulness and skills dealing with emotions, building cofidence and expressing empathy - which is so important in raising our little superheroes!
He absolutely did have fun and I will definitely consider getting him more boxes next year for Christmas.

It's funny, he wasn't interested in opening up the first box initially, but when he finally did, he became really engaged in it. So, great job, and he is definitely looking forward to the next two! He was most excited about being able to build something (the sundial with the first box).
It was amazing to see my daughter confidently trying to problem-solve instead of getting upset about the fact that it hadn’t worked right away. Instead of disappointment, she was eager to keep trying and figure out how she could correct the issue. I was really impressed with the way this Superpower Academy box managed to teach about failure in such a meaningful and engaging way! I could see how my daughter responded (and has responded since then) to the challenges with a sense of confidence and purpose instead of just retreating and giving up, which is definitely a powerful trait to have. I thought the materials and presentation were great, especially that recorded message (so cool!) and the fact that they offered some creativity and freedom within the projects made it an even more meaningful experience. I’m totally on board with this box!
I wanted to say that I'm a huge fan of your company. and love your products. I am a stay at home mom of two kids ages 4 and 10.
I appreciate your wonderful customer service!
Thanks for putting together such a fun and helpful box.
Superpower Academy was such a great experience for T. and has given us parents a new way to relate to him on an emotional level. We really appreciate the effort and mental presence that you brought to each experience. Both S. and I highly recommend your program to friends and family. Thank you.
My son really enjoyed his first box and loves being a superhero!
We really enjoy the product. We look forward to the new boxes!
I absolutely adore this for my four year-old son who has been exhibiting a ton of frustration and issues around anger"
"management. He gets so upset with his legos (for example) when they don't do what he wants them to or he drops"
"something he's been working on. , It's not easy for him to remember to be mindful when things aren't going his way. He"
"was so super excited to get this box! He immediately created an entire story around it.He was adamant to begin and finish"
"all of his missions immediately.the lessons are deliberate and packaged as fun they can identify with. Who wouldn’t want"
"to be their own superhero? It was amazing to see that spark of creativity and enthusiasm. I highly recommend it to"
"everyone that wants imagination time again!
This box is such a fantastic idea! In this box comes a monthly mission that helps kids solve problems, take risks, work throiugh emotions and chellenges, and display courage. Included are hands-on porjects, comic books, and workbooks, stories of real-life heroes and fun surprises! These activites have a larger, significant meaning to them and teach kids important life skills and lessons, long after the dazzle of ordinary toys wear off.
My child needs to be older to take full advantage of the activites in the box. Will reassess at a future date.
Your response and customer service are very impressive.
We received the package today and my nephew seems to be very excited
I am glad to see educational products, such as this one, that are beginning to take a look at developing grit in children.
