Not Your Typical Classroom

Based in Southlake, Texas, the first US-based LEGO Education Center has been welcoming children through its doors for nearly a year. Offering a variety of courses each focusing on hands-on learning through the use of LEGO Education sets and curriculum, trained Center staff teach essential skills to children ages 3-12. Everything from free play for preschoolers to robotic design and programming for pre-teens is available.
