LEGO Education brings classroom innovation to the living room

The LEGO Group is bridging the "curiosity gap" with the launch of four brand-new STEM sets designed specifically for home use. For the first time, LEGO Education is expanding its reach beyond the classroom to help parents who often struggle to keep pace with their children’s endless scientific questions. These sets, aimed at builders aged 7 and up, focus on high-interest themes like space exploration, animal biology, and nature, turning complex concepts into accessible, hands-on adventures.

At the heart of these new kits is the "Build, Solve, Invent" play loop—a structured learning method developed alongside professional educators. Children begin by constructing specific models to understand core principles, then move into a "Solve" phase where they must tweak and test their builds to overcome challenges. The journey culminates in the "Invent" stage, which encourages kids to apply their new knowledge to open-ended problems, fostering the kind of independent critical thinking usually reserved for the lab.

The new collection offers diverse scientific missions at various price points to suit every young explorer's ambition. For those ready to brave the cold or leave the atmosphere, the Antarctic Animals and Moon Mission Science Kits are available for $64.99 each. For a more expansive experience, the Mars Mission and Arctic Animals Science Kits provide deeper exploration and larger-scale builds for $129.99.
