Build with a Buddy
Ages 5+
 
Don’t have time to build Lego® with your children? Come let them build with a buddy!
Children will bring their new Lego® sets, big and small, and build them with the guidance of our team (please note it may take a number of sessions to complete a bigger build).
 
Apart from developing their fine motor skills and visual-spatial abilities while having fun, completing a Lego® set will instill a sense of accomplishment and confidence in children.
