Learning Through Play

Ever wondered why kids love playtime so much? It’s because playing is their natural way of learning and exploring the world around them! Learning Through Play lets children discover new things in a fun and engaging way where they can experiment, solve problems and use their imaginations while building important life skills that are tough to teach with traditional tutoring.

The LEGO Learning System uses the power of game-based learning by combining the bricks and pieces we all know and love with cross-curricular lesson plans that encourage children to dive into the exciting world of STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Maths) through brick building and creative storytelling.

Hands on = Minds on

Building on the popular SPIKE Prime kit (not included), the LEGO® Education SPIKE™ Prime Expansion Set allows students preparing for robotics competitions and events such as FIRST® LEGO® League to take their projects to the next level.

An extra LEGO® Technic™ Large Motor and Colour Sensor gives young inventors the scope to add new functionality to larger and more complex builds.

Special lesson plans from LEGO Education make use of the Expansion Set that are designed to get students thinking beyond the box to solve problems in teams and further develop the 21st century skills needed to thrive in any career.

Why STEM matters

The UK is at the forefront of technological innovation and STEM-qualified professionals are highly sought-after, but far more are needed to ensure companies can keep recruiting people with the skills they need to compete in the 21st century. One way we can address this is by helping to break down the misconceptions that Maths is pointless or Science is boring; to bridge the gap between children from underrepresented communities and ensure that everyone has the chance to shine.

STEM isn’t just about textbook learning; it needs a dynamic approach that encourages critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity. Picture your child building a LEGO robot that sorts recycling with SPIKE Essential or designing a mini wind turbine with BricQ Motion Prime – these are the types of hands-on activities that help kids understand the world around them and spark a passion for lifelong learning that could one day help change the world!
