 Create and Take Kits

LEGO® Bricks 

Organizations and Events 

​​ Create and Learn

Unique Activities for  Organized Children’s Event or Organizations like OSC, Girl Guides, Brownies, Scouts, 4 H Clubs, FCSS, Libraries, etc.  

Create and Learn has worked with daycares, OSC, FCSS, community libraries and so forth, offering successful building sessions since 2014.  We would like the opportunity to offer a unique building option to children in your area. 

We offer Create and Take Kits which are models we have created with a STEM, STEAM and/or Science focus.  We then package the models into kits for the children to build and take home.  Included in the kits are easy to follow instructions (pictures) and all of the pieces needed to build the interactive model.  We have designed the models with extra pieces so the children learn by following instructions but also develop their imagination by altering their models.  Children will take home all of the pieces received in their kits.  This way the kits can be a one time building activity or used multiple times.  Your organization will lead these programs and decide when the children take the kits home.  It will be your choice to organize helpers. These kits will contain LEGO® bricks and pieces for children ages 4-12 for both boys and girls. 

Since we are using regular size bricks, these programs do not work with Duplo bricks.  We are unable to offer programming for children aged 3 years and under at this time and the regular bricks may pose a choking hazard for children 3 years and under. 

Listed below are the different Building Options with our Create and Take Kits:

Zipline Building Option with Create and Take Kit is $8.25 per child plus GST (price includes shipping and handling).    This Zipline Moves!    
  • ​Children will build a zipline which a mini figure (not included) can fit on.  The zipline has a pulley which enables it to move down the string provided which the leader sets up as a slope.  The leader can offer extra time for the children to alter their model. 
  • The children can enjoy this activity one time or many times and then each child takes home their own Zipline Create and Take Kit.  
  • This is a building activity where the children may want to use a mini figure to test their creation and increase interaction.  The Mini Figures can be discounted to $4.50 each plus GST (price includes shipping and handling) as long as a minimum purchase of 15 of our Create and Take Kits and a minimum purchase of 15 Mini Figures. 
  • We have a different design of the Zipline for organizations who have ordered previously (which we have documented in our notes).   
  • Both Zipline Create and Take Kits have over 25 pieces.    

Mosaics Building Option with Create and Take Kit is $11.25 per child plus GST (price includes shipping and handling).    A great art option for non-traditional brick builders.     
  • First children build a platform from interlocking plates.  Then they are able to create pictures/images using small LEGO® bricks (1x1 and 1x2 size) which are built on the platform they created. 
  • Also, there is the ability to create a stand for the platform and/or to add a piece which allows the platform to hang on a wall, bulletin board and so forth, therefore, increasing the versatility of the platform.  The platform measures 6 cm tall by 9 cm long without adding the stand. 
  • This Create and Take Kit has 40 pieces.     

Bridges Building Option with Create and Take Kit is $11.50 per child plus GST (price includes shipping and handling).    Test bridges stability!    
  • Children will build a Mini Arch Bridge and Mini Beam Bridge.  These are great models to test stability and weight capacity of the bridges.  With the beam bridge, the children can build different pillars.  
  • There are enough pieces to build each model separately.  There are not enough pieces to build both models at the same time.  Once the models are built and taken apart, the children can build a bridge from their imagination as there are many great pieces to build from.  There are 2 pieces added to the kit so a sign/label can be added to either of the bridges. 
  • The Mini Beam Bridge is 4.5 cm tall by 16 cm long.  The Mini Arch Bridge is 9 cm tall by 9.5 cm long. 
  • This Create and Take Kit has 50 pieces.

Watercraft Building Option with Create and Take Kit is $12.00 per child plus GST (price includes shipping and handling).     
  • Children will create a watercraft from their imagination.  We have included instructions for the base of a watercraft then the children build on the base.  There are pieces in the kit for the children to create watercrafts with pontoons. 
  • The leader may choose to create different experiments that deal with carrying capacity, stability of the watercraft and so forth. 
  • This Create and Take Kit has over 30 pieces. 

Wind Power Vehicle Building Option with Create and Take Kit is $13.25 per child plus GST (price includes shipping and handling).    
  • Children construct a balloon vehicle that moves by experimenting with wind power (balloon and balloon pump included for each child).  Please note the balloons are made out of latex. 
  • This is a building activity where the children may want to use a mini figure to test their creation and increase interaction.  The Mini Figures can be discounted to $4.50 each plus GST (price includes shipping and handling) as long as a minimum purchase of 15 of our Create and Take Kits and a minimum purchase of 15 Mini Figures.

Based on our experience we estimate each Building Option with our Create and Take Kits to take approximately 45-60 minutes. To gauge the time for activities there are a few factors to consider that may impact that estimate:
·         The number of children and number of volunteers 

·         Some children really like to alter their creation multiple times which can take more time

·         The number of helpers to the number of children

·         Experience with instructions and building materials like bricks
