We don’t have a dedicated Lego Club, but we bust out our Legos, especially when the kids don’t have school. We’ve tried different approaches – themes, no themes, read alouds, games, etc. And I really enjoy dumping the Legos on the floor and letting the kids go to town. A lot of the kids that come into our library are book solid with sports, programming, music, art and more. I like creating an environment where the kids can use their imagination, work their brain muscles and are given the time to explore. For the most part I saw a lot of robots and other machines that had lasers, guns and the works, but the kids were so proud of their creations! And that’s what I want – kids to enjoy building for the sake of building, not to expect a prize at the end and to be proud of their creations. It was interesting to see this time around – I had about 20 kids in my first group, probably about 2/3 boys. I had a number of groups of boys collaborating on projects and the girls working separately on their own. Normally, I see the opposite, but I like giving the kids a chance to work together, share resources, and plan how their creation will come together.
