Play. Thoughts. Dreadlocks.
Six Bricks is a dynamic and affordable method of learning through play that turns six colored LEGO® DUPLO bricks into a tool for complete child development. In just a few minutes a day, children develop key skills for the 21st century – while having fun, moving, thinking and creating.
The method was created in South Africa by Care for Education – a partner of the Rise Bulgaria Foundation – and is already used by thousands of teachers around the world.
