Twist it. Snap it. Build it. This after-school session gives the boys a chance to design, stack, connect, and construct with Legos, blocks, Magna-Tiles, and marble runs…..to name a few.
It is a great way to help build fine motor skills, as well. It’s all about constructing, tinkering, creating, and having fun with friends. Join us for a building bonanza! Please send an extra snack!
