time! A Bricks 4 Kidz Night Out is a high-energy, creative, fun evening<br />

full of LEGO® building projects, games and more! Children will spend<br />

Bricks 4 Kidz – Space Adventures<br />

Many children dream of being an astronaut and traveling to space, so<br />

Bricks 4 Kidz created an entire unit around<br />

space! Each week, students will learn about<br />

real-life space exploration and build a new<br />

model related to the NASA space program.<br />

Models include a satellite, a lunar module,<br />

a centrifuge which astronauts use to prepare<br />

for the physical sensations of launch,<br />

a treadmill which astronauts use to stay fit<br />

in space, and a “space robot”. During this<br />

unit, students will learn some of the science<br />

behind launching things into orbit, will hear<br />

about the most-distant-man-made object in<br />

the universe, and discuss what it is like to be an astronaut in space. Are you a<br />

budding astronaut? An adventurer who loves space exploration? Then you’ll<br />

love our Space theme projects! We’ll be building NASA astronaut training<br />

equipment, a space robot and more in this exciting four-week session. Let<br />

Bricks 4 Kidz launch your imagination to outer-space and beyond!<br />
