Join us for our awesome Christmas workshops where we’ll build reindeer, sleighs and Christmas decorations. We are running 3 workshops over Christmas 2019.

Big Builders

This workshop is for children aged 3 to 5. These K’NEX based workshops will mix stories, structured building and free play. We will get in the Christmas spirit with a short story. Children will then be given instructions and help to make a reindeer with a lovely red nose! We will then give them lots of time and help to build a sleigh using their own imagination, we do have instructions for those that prefer that. Finally there will be time for photos before we head home with as small souvenir.

Bricks Challenge

This workshop is for children aged 6 to 11. These sessions will use our motorised LEGO technic kits to make a moving Santa Sleigh.

The children will work in pairs (max 12 children) to build a LEGO sleigh and reindeer and then learn to program it to move backwards and forwards. Please ensure your child is happy working in a pair. If your child has a friend attending just let us know and we will ensure they are paired.
