Bricks 4 Kidz – LEGO® Creativity and Model Design Summer Camps 

Bricks 4 Kidz® offers project-based programs designed to teach early principles and methods of engineering and architecture using LEGO® bricks. Our summer camps are a great mix of technic model building, creative basic brick building and other engaging challenges and projects. Some camps have a pop culture theme while others highlight a specific end project but all camps are intended to trigger your young builder’s lively imagination, encourage problem solving and enable children to learn through play. All Campers will take home a B4K t shirt and a mini LEGO® building set at the end of each camp week.

-CREATIVITY SERIES: Campers use various types of LEGO® bricks to build simple machines, 3D models, Architectural models and mosaics. Machine building is primarily model plan driven for the purpose of learning basic concepts. Best for K-5th grade.
