Libraries ACT LEGO Brick Club Challenge
Libraries ACT run a Brick Club Challenge.
It’s a great option for some school holiday fun or rainy-day activity.
Kids can find inspiration in online story time videos. There’s a list of fun ideas to get their creative juices flowing. Once they’ve chosen, it’s time to get stuck into their LEGO, or other building materials.
Keen builders can have their grown-up share a photo of their handiwork on the Libraries ACT Facebook page.
