Starting Young in Construction with Block Kids

The Santa Clara chapter of the National Association of Women in Construction (NAWIC) recently sponsored a LEGO building competition for students in grades first through sixth.

The children were allowed 45 minutes in which to create their architectural masterpieces with one hundred LEGO blocks, a rock, a piece of string and a bit of foil. Through imagination and a fun hands-on activity, children, both girls and boys, got the opportunity to experience the thrill of designing and constructing their own project.

The kids of today are the architects, contractors and carpenters of the future.

To arrange for a Block Kids Building Day in your community, contact the NAWIC, for more information.
