Groovy Lab in a Box review April 2015

Today we got our Groovy Lab in a Box for April it is a monthly subscription box that is like a stem class in a box. It costs $26.95 a month and the price goes down if you pay for multiple month up front.

Let's take a look at what we got.

1. The Lab notebook
This is a notebook full of experiments and lessons to do with your kids all towards giving you the knowledge to do the design challenge for the month.
Each experiment comes with detailed instructions on how to do it as well information on the why and how it works. You can also go to the beyond the box website to learn even more about it.

2. The materials 
In the box you will find everything you need to do all the experiments for the month I love this they cover all of it. 

One of the other great things is that one box can be used as group experiments with up to 4 people so our whole family can do it together and once we are done we can keep the book and get our own supplies later and do it again if we choose. I will be doing all the experiments with my kids and posting a video of it as well as on here telling our thoughts on them. Until then you can watch my unboxing video here.
