This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

Legos have been a popular toy for children for decades, but their usefulness goes far beyond just being a fun way to pass the time. Legos are also an incredibly useful tool for teaching STEM concepts, making them an excellent addition to any STEM club. First and foremost, Legos are a versatile and dynamic toy that allow for endless possibilities. With just a few simple blocks, children can build anything from a simple house to a complex robot. This flexibility makes Legos an ideal tool for teaching engineering and design principles. By playing with Legos, children can learn about structural integrity, geometry, and problem-solving, all of which are essential components of STEM education.
Furthermore, Legos are a hands-on way for children to learn about spatial reasoning and geometry.
These Lego sets will make a great addition to build something for Lunar Chinese Year. It will allow students to use their creativity to learn about Chinese New Year.
By building a Lego structure, children are able to experiment with different shapes and sizes, and see how they fit together to create a solid, three-dimensional object. This kind of tactile learning is crucial for understanding the fundamentals of geometry and can help solidify these concepts in a way that reading about them in a textbook cannot.
