What is the Six Bricks Programme?
The Six Bricks method offers a creative and tactile approach to learning, using LEGO DUPLO bricks in six specific colours. It incorporates over 500 activities that can align with any educational curriculum. Through colourful bricks and purposeful play, the programme encourages children to move, think critically, and build memory skills in an engaging, supportive environment.
How Does Six Bricks Work?
Each child uses their own set of DUPLO bricks. Activities can be selected at any time, allowing flexibility and creativity in choosing activities that suit the group or individual’s needs. Starting with simple exercises that introduce children to the bricks, they gradually move on to more advanced challenges that build teamwork and problem-solving skills.
Duration: Activities range from as short as 5 minutes to up to 40 minutes, depending on the focus.
