I was personally responsible for scouting Play-Well, initiating contact with the company, and ultimately establishing the first Play-Well programs in Minnesota. Our future goals are to expand beyond the Twin Cities to the major metropolitan centers in Minnesota.At Play-Well, we teach kids K-5 engineering through systematic play with the LEGO System. Projects range from simple brick modeling to advanced mechanical assemblies. We use LEGO Technic components including Power Functions, LEGO pneumatic systems, and Technic gears and pullies to create a wide range of simple machines. In the process, we teach kids STEAM basics such as structures, assemblies, elementary physics and various types of energies that power our world. Most importantly--we encourage kids to experience the cognitive, physical, creative, emotional and social skills they develop through LEGO play.
