Overview of Course

Overview of Course

Lets do Lego sessions are ideal for children who enjoy STEAM learning. The course is designed to guide and encourage children to look at problem solving, planning and creating models with Lego. Models made from Lego such as a balloon car, a penguin, dinosaur or photo frame will captivate their imagination and challenge them to do more. The course builds confidence and dexterity in children and provides an opportunity for parents to work with children.
