Crate, a monthly subscription box that teaches kids all about the women in the past who have made an important contribution to our society. Finding nothing outside of domestic or appearance-based products, Megan, Kristen Snyder, and Allison decided to create Girls Can! Crate, as a way of exposing all girls to the achievements of all types of women and thereby inspiring them.

To do this, the duo created a fun new experience in a box called The Lab Drawer. The goal of The Lab Drawer is to help kids have fun learning STEAM, or science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics. The box is geared to kids aged 10-14 and according to Gabriel and Roberson, it helps kids connect the science they experience every day to scientific principles. Each box, which is delivered monthly and costs $44.99, involves a fun creative activity that kids can do. Besides the subscription, Gabriel and Roberson post fun experiments on their Tik Tok channel that kids can easily follow along at home.
