The Brick Works

Fantastic interactive Brick Works session today at Edinburgh North Childcare holiday camp.
Kids had a fantastic time and the creations were outstanding.
We built a city of the future with so many inspiring creations like a forward and back bus, a house with a sloping roof to harvest rainwater, an animal sanctuary, swimming pools, rockets and so much more.
If you would like to book a session for a kids party or holiday club we are now taking booking for July.

Edinburgh gets a LEGO store! I was at the new St James quarter at the weekend - it was VERY busy! The long queues are not putting LEGO fans off getting some new bricks!

Edinburgh shoppers queue from 3am for opening of LEGO store at new St James Quarter Eager shoppers have been queuing since 3am to be the first across the threshold of Edinburgh’s new LEGO store.

The mini figures are getting ready for a socially distanced play session tomorrow! Happy building everyone!

The brickworks is hoping to run some local lego play sessions over the holidays - watch this space!

FREE LEGO Instructions! — Warren Elsmore Stuck at home? Maybe some free LEGO instructions will help a little...

sorry we are going to have to cancel play sessions tomorrow - trying to avoid any social gatherings at the moment due to the current advice on the Corona Virus - stay safe and symptom free - we will post on the Brickworks when we are back up and running, thanks and aplogies for any inconvenience caused.

Decided to stop all play sessions for the next while so as to limit exposure for kids and their grown ups to potential corona virus. Thanks so much in advance for your understanding. Tiggy x

The benefits of toy blocks: The science of construction play Playing with toy blocks helps kids develop better motor and spatial skills. It may also boost creativity, focus, and mathematical ability. But to unleash these benefits, kids need to do more than move blocks around. Learn how to make block play more stimulating and engaging.

Love these skills for the future...love developing these through brick-building play
