What can you do with 20 LEGO® bricks?

What can you do with just 20 LEGO® bricks?

The quick 20 brick challenge… Here’s a great idea to get your whole class involved and develop creativity, language and literacy and communication skills as well as being a lot of fun! Pick 20 random LEGO® or LEGO® DUPLO® bricks of different sizes and colours (including one with eyes if you have one) and see how many different models your children can make from them. There are millions of possibilities – why not photograph them and put a display on the wall? So many ways to learn.

Class project idea Pick a theme – for example imaginary animals or fairytale creatures. The children can use the bricks to create the animals or creatures, and then draw pictures or make a scene out of other LEGO bricks or materials to create the environment where these creatures live and play. The photos, pictures and scenes can then create a wonderful display which can be used to get your children to role play and tell stories about their creatures and the adventures they get up to each day. Simple, fun and educational!
