Six Bricks Australia

Perceptual skills are the hidden foundations of learning ✨🧠

When children can notice
patterns, remember visual information, and understand space and position, they build stronger foundations for reading, writing, focus, and problem solving.

In our latest Six Bricks Australia LOWDOWN, Sandra Lunn and Jenny Chate explore how simple, playful Six Bricks activities can strengthen perceptual skills through movement, hands-on learning, and joyful repetition.

💛 Easy to implement
💙 Brain-smart learning
❤️ Play-based and engaging
💚 Perfect for early childhood and primary settings

Can you spot the fish? 🐟🔥🐉
Or maybe it’s a fire dragon with an flaming tail…

This week in our online Six Bricks Level 1 & 2 training, educators became storytellers, creators, problem-solvers, and imaginative thinkers through the “Warm and Cold Creatures” activity.

Using only Six Bricks and their imagination, participants created mythical creatures, matched heads and tails online, invented magical powers, and built collaborative stories together.

What looks like play is actually developing:
✨ Visual discrimination
✨ Creativity and storytelling
✨ Teamwork and communication
✨ Focus and inhibitory control
✨ Spatial awareness and problem solving

This is the magic of Six Bricks — simple activities with powerful learning outcomes.

Thank you to the amazing educators who joined us this week and brought such energy, creativity, and laughter to the session 💛💙❤️💚

🔥Small Builds. Big Confidence.

Short, achievable Six Bricks activities help children build confidence through quick wins. By starting, completing, and improving simple tasks, children strengthen persistence, focus, and self-belief-without overwhelm.

Confidence doesn’t come from doing more.
It comes from finishing something-and knowing you can do it again.

🧱 In just minutes, Six Bricks activities create small wins that build:
✔️ Persistence
✔️ Focus
✔️ Self-belief
✔️ Willingness to try again

When children experience success quickly, everything shifts-from “I can’t” to “I did.”

Simple. Structured. Powerful.

Bilateral coordination, balance, coordination., success with Six Bricks.

Once the bricks are balanced:
spread your arms out
wave your arms gently up and down
make airplane or spaceship (Artemis 2) noises as you move around.

💥Planning overload.
💥Program writing pressure.
💥Trying to link resources meaningfully.
💥Keeping children engaged.
💥Documenting, assessing… then doing it all again tomorrow.

Sound familiar?

Six Bricks isn’t an add-on.
It’s an add-in.

It doesn’t sit on top of your day — it fits inside it.

🧱 Turn play into purposeful learning
🧱 Capture observations as they happen
🧱 Link directly to outcomes without extra paperwork
🧱 Boost engagement without reinventing your program
🧱 Make assessment visible, simple, and meaningful

This is what educators tell us:
“It actually saves me time.”
“My documentation finally makes sense.”
“The children are more engaged — and I can see their thinking.”

If you’re feeling the pressure of doing more…
Six Bricks helps you do it smarter, not harder.

⚠️ Training investment increases from 1 July 2026
Now is the time to book and bring your team with you.

So much more than “online training”…

This was connection, creativity, and hands-on learning all in one room 🧱✨

Educators from Possums and Kookaburras at Rockhampton South Kindergarten came together while Sandra and Jenny joined live from Sydney — and this is the closest you’ll get to a face-to-face Six Bricks experience without leaving your centre.

As we explored all 41 Six Bricks activities, something powerful happened…
👉 Educators didn’t just learn them — they adapted them.
👉 They scaled them up.
👉 They simplified them.
👉 They created entirely new ideas.

That’s what happens when you bring passionate educators together.

We were so impressed by the commitment, creativity, and professionalism in the room. The energy was real. The ideas were endless. And the day flew by.

This is what Six Bricks is all about — practical, playful learning that educators can use immediately.

If you’re an Early Learning Centre wanting to build confident, creative teams… this is your sign.

Stop asking kids to explain… and start asking them to show you 🧱

Thinking in young children is physical, not always verbal.

In our latest LOWDOWN, we share how Six Bricks helps children connect action with language—without pressure.
