Welcome to Bedtime History. Hello, this is Brack.

Growing up, one of my favorite childhood memories was using my imagination to build new things.

I'd take apart old, unused electronics or appliances in our home, and then try and rebuild them into something new and interesting.

They usually didn't work. They were more like works of art than functioning inventions, but I had a blast doing it.

What's great about a product like KiwiCo is the things you build as part of the engineering kits actually work.

My kids and I have built a few different projects together, including a ukulele, a pinball machine, headphones, and a speaker.

These projects include detailed instructions and also explain the science behind how the devices work.

As a parent, it can be hard to find creative ways to keep your children busy, challenged, and off screens.

KiwiCo does the legwork for you, so you can spend quality time tackling projects together.

KiwiCo also has boxes for geography and culture, the Atlas crate, and another one focused on cooking.

Other subjects are science, art, engineering, crafting, and design. KiwiCo also has crates designed for kids and adults of all ages.

As you enter a dark dark hallway, you use torches to light the way.

Ahead is your guide, a local Egyptian, who is showing the way deeper and deeper into the pyramid.

It is dark and you are scared, but you keep on going.

The hallway smells very musty. There has not been fresh air in this hallway for many years.

As you turn a corner, you see the door to a tomb.

You push back stones and other debris, and after pushing forward with your torch, the next room lights up and it's overflowing with ancient treasures.

You can't believe your eyes. You see gold and gems and more artifacts than you would ever imagined.
