The Tinker Crate subscription service by Kiwi Crate is aimed at kids aged 9-14 looking to explore various STEM-based projects. The aim of the boxes is to "make science and engineering seriously fun" with projects like How to Build a Hydraulic Claw or make a Walking Robot. Each kit includes the necessary parts to build the project, a detailed blueprint of instructions, a 'Tinker Zine' with additional content and activities, and a video tutorial.
Monthly subscriptions for the Tinker Crate begin at $19.95 and include free shipping. In addition, consumers can easily opt to switch to the brand's more advanced tech-focused box 'Eureka Cate,' or to one focused on arts and crafts like 'Doodle Crate' at no additional cost.
