Brighton Bricks

Encouraging Learning Through Play

ECO The Brick

In January we held Mind the Brick, a month about mental health awareness and LEGO building, as it was so successful I have decided to hold another awareness month.

So this April I am putting on Eco the Brick, a month filled with LEGO challenges and events, as well as me creating posts raising awareness of environmental issues.

Issues can be anything from recycling, reuse to endangered animals, from global issues like climate change to local issues like community gardens. I want to find ways in which we can use LEGO Bricks to help raise awareness
