I am quite excited to attend the workshops curated by The Wizards Den. Curated to help build life skills in children through after school enrichment hours. Each year their workshops in the summers foster learning in an engaging & non pressure environment.
Summer of 2014: 2 camps targeted at 2 different age groups
CONSTRUCTION JUNCTION: BUILD, BUILD, BUILD.Â
Age: Â 6 – 9 year olds; 5 daysÂ
Construction Junction calls all children to explore their creativity through Lego and other building material. In a five day camp the children will:
a) BUILD with LEGO: Children will build an Airport, a Police Station or a Doll’s house. Children will be divided into teams and over three days of the workshop they will construct Lego models along with their teams.
b) JIGSAW:Â Working in teams the children will build a 500 piece jigsaw over 2.5 hours.
c) BUILD A CITY: Children will use Cardboard cut-outs to make their own 3-d, houses, apartment buildings, garage, book shop, ice cream store etc. Together they will build their own mini-city!
Apart from the fun of building the workshop is aimed for children to develop :
- The Ability to work in teams
- Persistence and Patience to break down a project into small parts and to see it to completion
- Visual and Spatial perception skills
