LEGO | ExtraEd - Putting the Pieces Together

LEGO

Building is better with friends.

Teamwork. Group builds are more fun. Our LEGO program fosters a cooperative building environment where children learn to communicate effectively, share ideas, and work together towards a common goal.

Hands-on learning. By manipulating Lego bricks, kids enhance their fine motor skills, spatial awareness, and hand-eye coordination. They learn through trial and error, developing patience and persistence along the way.

Creative Exploration. Building with LEGO bricks encourages children to think critically, problem-solve, and express unique ideas. We aim to foster a sense of imagination and empower children to bring their visions to life.

No instructions necessary.

Our LEGO student program does not build from kits. We focus on open-ended-play, where inventiveness and imagination stem from students building without constraints. When every build is original, every build is more fun.

Each week students are tasked with a new challenge or project, for instance:

  • Build the strongest bridge competition
  • Collaborative team builds
  • Theme-based builds such as zoos, cities, parks, or dream homes
  • Free build sessions
  • Storytelling with LEGO
  • Creative group projects

All equipment provided.
