Brick Engaged

Welcome to Brick Engaged, a groundbreaking service dedicated to providing LEGO-based programs for neurodiverse children. We believe in the power of LEGO bricks to connect, engage, and empower children with diverse abilities. At Brick Engaged, we have created a unique therapeutic program that utilizes the inherent appeal of LEGO building to promote social interaction, communication skills, and emotional development.

 

Neurodiverse children, including those on the autism spectrum or with ADHD, often face challenges in social communication and building meaningful relationships. Traditional therapy approaches may not always resonate with them, making it difficult to effectively address their specific needs. That's where Brick Engaged comes in.

 

Our LEGO-based programs are based on the evidence-based approach that utilizes LEGO bricks as a tool for social development. Through purposeful play and structured group sessions, children can work collaboratively to build LEGO models, solve problems, and engage in shared play experiences. This process provides a platform for developing vital skills such as turn-taking, sharing, following instructions, and effective communication.

 

At Brick Engaged, we understand that each child is unique, and our programs are tailored to meet their individual needs. Our team of dedicated facilitators have valuable lived experience, training and skills to create a safe and inclusive environment where every child can thrive. We foster a culture of acceptance, understanding, and encouragement, allowing children to develop their strengths and overcome challenges with confidence.

 

We also recognize the importance of involving families, schools, and the wider community in the therapeutic journey. We actively encourage collaboration with parents and caregivers, providing them with support, feedback and, and guidance to reinforce therapy goals in everyday life. We work openly with schools and community organizations to promote awareness, acceptance, and inclusion for neurodiverse children.

 

At Brick Engaged, our mission is to empower neurodiverse children through the transformative power of LEGO play. We believe in the potential of every child to grow, learn, and form meaningful connections. By leveraging the universal appeal of LEGO bricks, we create a foundation for social and emotional growth, fostering a sense of belonging and confidence in our participants.

 

Join us at Brick Engaged as we build bridges, one brick at a time. Together, we can make a lasting impact on the lives of neurodiverse children, helping them reach their full potential and build a brighter future.
