Class Description:                                              
Using LEGO bricks, motors, remote controls and our proprietary model plans designed by engineers and architects, each four-week session will be an awesome mix of science and engineering, as kids build models that demonstrate the concepts learned.  They will  be challenged to think out of the box to solve problems and modify the models that they build as they are given a fun and engaging model engineering challenge to solve each week.  Each 4 week session will provide a new experience for your child, as we cover various educational topics.  To ensure space for your child, sign up for all sessions today.
