As you know LEGOs is the perfect tool to learn about engineering. In this little project the kids were tasked to build a maze for the the Hexbugs and the only requirement was they could not "escape" the maze. So much learning in this little activity. Planning, ideas, concentration, focus, motor skills, visual design, trial and error, fun and so much more!
DIFFICULTY
Easy
MATERIALS
LEGO bricks
INSTRUCTIONS
Plan the activity by talking about the project and expectations.
Discuss the problem we are trying to solve.
Be very clear about what they need to build.
Let them build their own ideas once you know they understand the task.
If the maze fails and the bugs "escape" try again ;)
Have fun!!
SAFETY
Adult supervision required for any of these activities. Please supervise and make sure children participating are safe. Read instructions and the safety labels from each material.
