Coding

with Six Bricks

Unlock the power of computational thinking and early coding skills with our “Coding with Six Bricks” course, designed specifically for educators of children aged 3-13. This certified program uses just six LEGO DUPLO bricks to teach foundational coding concepts, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills.
Perfect for both new and experienced Six Bricks educators, this course provides hands-on activities, personalized attention, and practical tools to effectively integrate coding into early education.

Coding as a practical skill and computational thinking (CT) as a cognitive ability have become an important topic in education and research. It has been suggested that CT, as an early predictor of academic success, should be introduced and fostered early in education.

Join us to inspire young minds and foster essential skills through playful learning.
