Ready, set, build!
In LEGO Robotics Discovery Lab, young innovators turn LEGO® bricks into buzzing, spinning, sensor-powered creations through exciting hands-on engineering challenges. Using the LEGO® Education SPIKE™ Essentials system and kid-friendly block coding, campers discover how robots move, think, and interact with the world—all without needing advanced reading or coding skills.

Topics Explored in the Lab:

• Robotics made fun – Build exciting models while discovering how gears, motors, and sensors work together.
• Beginner-friendly coding – Use colorful drag-and-drop blocks to bring creations to life.
• Build → Code → Play – Every session includes designing, programming, testing, and watching robots move, react, and complete fun challenges.
• Creative problem-solving – Go beyond the instructions with opportunities to customize builds, experiment, and invent your own robotic solutions.
• A new adventure each visit – Every Lab features a fresh challenge, making it easy to join whenever it fits your schedule.
