K - 6th Grade

Calling all gamers! Kids will use LEGO® Bricks to create and build different characters from their favorite video games. Themes such as Super Mario Bros, Roblox, and Beyblades come to life through our motorized models and mosaics, all made out of LEGO® Bricks. Don't forget classic Nintendo and SEGA themes such as Zelda, Duck Hunt, Pacman, and Sonic the Hedgehog! Each class will be a new adventure as the virtual and LEGO® worlds combine!

Each class is a fun and educational LEGO-building adventure with Bricks 4 Kidz. We use age-appropriate models for different levels of building skill. This hands-on class explores STEAM concepts (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) primarily using LEGO Bricks, in which children will develop problem-solving and critical-thinking skills in a fun and engaging way. Even our youngest and newest students will learn how to make mechanical LEGO models that move and groove. As they advance in building skill, they’ll also motorize their weekly model for even more learning fun!
