Welcome to Lego Deserted Island Challenge! In this fun, hands-on class, kids find themselves stranded on a deserted island and must use their creativity and problem-solving skills to overcome various challenges. Each week, we spin the mystery wheel to reveal a new problem, such as building a volcano shelter, a hurricane shelter, a water purification source, a trap to catch food thieves, or a transportation method for easier island navigation. With just 10 minutes on the clock, participants will brainstorm and construct their unique LEGO solutions to these imaginative challenges. Our challenges encourage quick thinking and innovation to problem solve. After the building session, participants will have the opportunity to present their creation to the group, explaining their thought process and how their solution addresses the challenge. This not only boosts their public speaking skills but also fosters a sense of community and teamwork. Join us for an adventure that combines fun, creativity, and friendship in a supportive and engaging environment! Our weekly themes are determined by our mystery wheel, so each week will be spontaneous!
