Basic Building Toys: Apr 4th

Post by Joseph »

On Sat. Apr 4[sup]th[/sup], Juan De Fuca Recreation Centre and VicLUG are working to bring another session of Building Block Toys, a course for ages 8-12 that focuses on basic bricks and techniques. Cost is $32 per child and the kids take home the brick bucket at the end of the workshop, hopefully with a lot of new ideas and skills as well!

This is the set that will most likely be used:

Repeat kids are welcome and can completly be accomodated, I'll work at trying to switch up the sets but unlike other toys it's ok if you get doubles in Lego ;)

The cabinet display is now padded out with a bunch more mocs and will get some pics of it the next time I'm up there. I'll be updating the Upcoming Events thread with all of the other dates that are coming down the pipe, most of which have yet to be 100% confirmed.

the course went great and managed to take a nice photo shoot of the kids' creations:

lots of kids used every brick in the bucket while managing to use almost every technique in the workshop as well as keeping their buildings colour matched and really interesting! they all had a great time and it's a good dose of inspiration on my end too :)
