CrunchLabs
We’re a small team of fun-loving engineers, designers and makers led by Mark Rober, our Head EnginNerd & former NASA engineer. Our goal is to teach kids how to Think Like an Engineer (because who better to teach children engineering than childish engineers!?) To us, thinking like an engineer isn’t about a profession or degree path, it’s a hands-on approach that helps you accomplish whatever you set your mind to. Even if that’s… starting a toy company! We hope you have as much fun with our toys as we do.
