Build, tinker and experiment with LEGO® in libraries!

Posted on: May 15, 2023

If you’re a parent or carer with a child aged 6-11 who loves LEGO®, why not sign up for our free new LEGO® in libraries project? Your child will get the chance to improve their maths and English skills, while having fun playing with relatable LEGO® characters!

Using a combination of LEGO® Education SPIKE™ Essential kits and Lenovo Chromebooks, children will guide characters through compelling stories and use problem-solving, literacy and coding skills to complete each unit.

Book on to a session and come along to build, tinker and experiment!
