Lego Civics
This program is currently unavailable. Click here to view all of our current programs.
As our students build a fully-planned and intricately-designed Lego city, they also learn to govern it. Students learn about elections, laws, city planning, economics, and the environment as they serve on a city council which must make key governing decisions about their city. They work on committees to design their official city flag, design their city’s currency, and create a constitution of laws. Students have the opportunity to run for mayor, open their own business, debate city issues, and design city buildings. Social studies, history, and civics have never been so fun! Be sure to pack a lunch for this full day of fun.
