What is Groovy Lab in a Box?
In case you have not heard of Groovy Lab in a Box, it’s a monthly subscription service that teaches STEMists (your children!) all about science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). Each month, they send out a themed box filled with investigations that are fun and hands-on. The investigations culminate into an Engineering Design Challenge, where your STEMists must apply what they’ve learned from the investigations (and use their critical thinking skills) to complete the challenge.

These kits are not only extremely educational, but they are FUN. They will keep your children engaged for HOURS and I guarantee that you’ll want to be right there enjoying the fun, too. Lots of memories have been made with these kits in our home this year!

What is included in Groovy Lab in a Box?
The boxes contain everything you need to complete all of the activities, including a groovy retro-themed lab notebook. When I say everything, I’m not joking! One of the activities for the weather station box called for a dime and several strands of human hair. I kid you not, they were included.

Can you give me a groovy example?
Okay, folks, are you ready? Let me give you a glimpse into the Groovy Lab in a Box from this past May. Do you have a STEMist who is fascinated by aviation? Well, I can guarantee your little STEMist will adore May’s “Fly With Me” groovy box, which is filled with activities to explore aeronautical forces, Bernoulli’s Principle and Newton’s Law of Inertia Action – Reaction and much, much, more.

May’s groovy Engineering Design Challenge: You are a starry-eyed aerospace engineer and a groovy world traveler. You dream of taking off in the blue, gliding where the air is stratified and floating down to Peru. Using only the materials from your Groovy Lab in a Box, can you design, build, and launch an airplane generating thrust with a propeller which travels fifteen feet? STEMists, get ready to pack up and fly away!
Fellow STEMists who want to become groovy aerospace engineers can be on their way to doing research and investigations through the engineering design process found in the aviation-themed Groovy Lab in a Box. When kids “engineer” their very own original designs, they are doing the “E” in STEM! Next Generation Science Standards blended with project-based learning. Hands-on Investigations & Engineering Design Challenge in every groovy box!
And now, the GROOVY giveaway:
