I am a teen library and my patrons love tech. I wanted something that could challenge several different skill levels and Creation Crate was the answer.
Our 12 year old son just turned 13 (!) and loves the creation crate he received for his birthday. We are having so much fun working on the projects together!
Bringing computer engineering to children for only 29-ish bucks is an incredibly honorable goal. Thank you guys, and good luck in the future!
Great for beginners who want to get into making and programming, but do not know where to start.
Creation Crate did a great job of explaining how the mood lamp worked. I'm excited to see what comes next!
I got a 3 month subscription for my boyfriend who studied computer science in University and has always been interested in hardware. Loved it!
It has taken the controller out of his hands and put the control in his hands.
Also a fun, valuable educational tool for curious adults who want to learn more about electronics and coding.
I'm 48 years old and this is an absolute joy but in all seriousness it's also the future. Talk about having fun!
I got it for my younger sister, who’s an engineering major at her university. She thought it was pretty awesome and had a lot of fun putting it together.
It was really fun working on this with my eight-year-old. I helped with some of the cutting of the box, and he pretty much wired it up himself.
My first Creation Crate came earlier this month, the directions and application of the project were very clear and straightforward.
My husband has been wanting to get into electronics as a side hobby for some time and this has been a great way to ease him into a field that he is completely unfamiliar with.
Received my first box (on the quarterly plan) a few days ago and really enjoying it so far! I'm on the second project already, and have learned quite a bit!
Shipping was a little slow due to COVID I'm assuming but everything was as promised and good quality.
The delivery was prompt. All needed components where there. Great value.
Had a really great time with my son learning how to program and use the bread board. The courses are really great and my son can't get enough of the projects.
Fun complete kit, additional side projects would be good.
The kit comes with all the parts you would need. It’s nice having a printed out set of instructions that you can use to follow along with the video instruction. Can’t wait to complete more of the projects
Very easy to subscribe, exciting to get a new project each month, easy to follow, and fun for kids and adults alike!!!
Fun complete kit, additional side projects would be good.
