Big Builders

This fun and unique program is for young kids in preschool, daycare and kindergarten (ages 4-6). The Big Builders program incorporates tactile, motor, and spatial skills while introducing science and engineering principles using K’nex® building blocks. These programs are conducted in small groups to ensure each Big Builder obtains the intended knowledge and experience.

Ages: 4 -6 (PreSchool and Kindergarten)

Average lesson duration: 90 minutes

Program Subjects Include 

Physics Principles: Basic principles such as balance and buoyancy

Animal Kingdom: Various animals – domestic and wild

Biology: Natural pest control, pollination and symbiosis

The Universe: Space, Earth and the Solar System

Geometry: Characteristics of basic geometric shapes

Transportation and Traffic Safety: Understanding different types of vehicles including motorcycles, trucks, cars and boats

Bricks Challenge

The Bricks Challenge program introduces elementary school children (ages 6-12) to the basic principles of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). By integrating basic arithmetic learned in school with an intuitive active learning process, children grasp a better understanding of the fundamentals of physics and engineering concepts. Your child will explore various principles of STEM through learner engagement sessions followed by hands on building of the lesson.

Ages: 6 – 12 (1st – 5th grade)

Average lesson duration: 90 minutes

Program Subjects Include 

Basic and complex mathematics: Instructors teach basic math, from addition and subtraction to exponents

Famous scientific and philosophical figures: Archimedes, Sir Isaac Newton, Einstein, and more

Powers and principles in physics: Centrifugal and centripetal forces, the power of inertia, potential energy, kinetic energy, action/reaction law, buoyancy, torque, fulcrum, load division, angular momentum, and more.
