✨ LEGO Classroom Field Trips

Hands-on, Standards-Aligned Learning Experiences – Delivered Right to Your Classroom!

🚀 Bring the LEGO Learning Adventure to Your Students

Our on-site field trips are very popular with small groups, but we know big classes feel left out. That's why we've started bringing the field trip to you!

Our LEGO Classroom Field Trips are immersive, hands-on learning experiences aligned with Common Core State Standards. Created and led by an experienced teacher, each session blends engagement, academic rigor, and creativity using LEGO as a learning tool.

🎯 Customized for Your Classroom

Every class is unique, so our programs are too.
We work with teachers and school leaders to craft LEGO learning experiences that meet instructional goals and fit a broad range of budgets.
