Project with Play Included and Lego Foundation

I am so happy that I can finally share my recent project with Play Included and LEGO Foundation to help launch the Brick by Brick programme (formerly known as LEGO based therapy) for neurodivergent children on an international scale.

The filming was done in East Auckland where I am currently based and run Brick Clubs. I am very proud of the children who took part of this project and the progress they have made over time. They are the true heroes and superstar in the makings. This is the reason why I love my job!

Upcoming workshop for all Lego Master Builders!

Upcoming Brick Club for you to join!

Introducing Brick Club! The club where young people can have fun building LEGO® models together.

During Brick Club, children take part in team-based activities and work together to build a LEGO model, taking turns to play different roles (called the Engineer, Supplier and Builder) until the model is built. Building together involves joint decision-making, communication, social interaction, motor skills, creativity, imagination, problem-solving and much more! Over time, children develop a sense of community and belonging through their shared interest in playing with LEGO bricks.
