Combining the art of LEGO® building with computer technology, your child will make their creation come to life! Each week, they will build a goal kicker, a goal keeper, and cheering fans! They then connect the robot to a laptop for a rewarding, interactive experience. Children experience hands on building while gaining an introduction to robotics (laptops provided by Brick Play Studios).

These programs are based on the established LEGO® Education curriculum which aims to broaden your child’s understanding of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.

This program will not only enrich your child from an educational perspective, but also reinforce teamwork.  Children work in pairs, using a “building buddy” system. This type of cooperative learning strengthens communication skills and also builds self-esteem .
