Activity Description

  • Age: 3-8 Years

  • Ask: Can you manufacture a marble maze using Legos?

  • Materials:

  • Note to Parents: It is important to let children problem solve and struggle a bit when creating. Keep in mind that the process of the activity is just as important as the product! Ask questions but don’t offer answers. If he or she gets stuck, go back to things they know (how to connect two Legos together, how to make a corner with two Legos, etc.) to get them restarted. You can help with execution, but resist the urge to take over!
