How would you like to serve as the mayor of your very own LEGO city this summer?
At Kidizens' upcoming Summer Camps, students aged 6-11 learn all about
the civics and economics of managing a city! During the camp, the
students will partner age-appropriately to serve as co-mayors of a
LEGO city which they will both create and govern. Their city will
also soon be filled with “residents”, each of whom will have requests,
demands and opinions. They will be sending telegrams to the mayor’s
offices, and the mayors will need to respond! Meanwhile, our
Kidizens Team will give the mayors background information through
detailed lessons on topics such as constitutions, economics,
infrastructure, flags, budgeting and much more! Plus, mayors will
have to handle public entities such as police force and fire
department, respond to natural disasters, work on treaties with the
mayors of neighboring cities in inter-city summits, and settle any
court cases that may arise. It will be a period of great fun and great
learning!
