At Young Engineers, we rebuild a lawn mower using LEGO 🧱⚙️
Children aged 6 to 12 explore how rotating blades work, why safety matters in machines, and how everyday systems are designed while having fun 🚜✨
Real life engineering meets creativity through hands on learning.

Perfect for curious kids who love to build and discover 🚀

What do children really learn while they play?

In our LEGO-based STEM education, children do much more than build models.
They learn how to think, question, design, and solve problems through hands-on experience.

Through conveyor belt activities built with LEGO parts, children:
• Observe how motion is created
• Explore direction changes and mechanical logic
• Understand cause-and-effect relationships
• Design and test their own systems
• Gain confidence by turning ideas into working solutions

All activities are carefully designed to be age-appropriate, safe, and engaging.
Our goal is not to teach by memorization, but to support children in becoming
curious, creative, and solution-oriented learners.

A fun and hands-on STEM experience for children: the Carousel model.
With this build, kids don’t just play—they explore real engineering and physics concepts through movement and experimentation.

🔎 What children learn with this model:

⚙️ Understanding the basic principle of an electric motor
They discover how a motor generates motion and how energy turns into mechanical movement.

🌪️ Exploring centrifugal and centripetal forces
By observing rotation in action, children experience how forces behave in circular motion—making abstract physics concepts tangible.

🎚️ Safely adjusting and controlling speed changes
They learn how speed affects balance and performance, while developing control, safety awareness, and problem-solving skills.

✨ In short: Building, learning, and having fun—all at once.

How does a simple spin turn into real engineering learning?

With this hands on model, children discover the science behind motion in a fun and memorable way.

In this activity, children will
• Explore how rotational motion is created.
• Understand how an elastic band (belt drive) transfers movement and speed.
• Investigate weight distribution and balance in a spinning wheel.

They build, test, observe, and improve through real experimentation.
Perfect for developing problem solving, engineering thinking, and curiosity.

For children, speed is more than just fun; when guided correctly, it becomes a powerful learning tool.
In our Race Car workshop, children explore the relationship between motion, balance, and design by building and experimenting with a race car model.

This hands-on experience supports:
problem-solving skills,
cause-and-effect thinking,
and an early understanding of engineering principles.

Children don’t just watch —
they learn by doing and thinking.

Our young engineers are discovering how a rabbit keeps its balance while jumping — and how movement is transferred through gears! 🐰⚙️
They use their hands, think, experiment, and even fix their own mistakes.
So they’re not just building a model — they’re learning systematic thinking, cause-and-effect relationships, and problem-solving. 💡

Before you know it, they’ll be looking at their toy car wondering, “How do these gears actually work?” 😄

📍 Walthamstow Central Library
⏰ Every Saturday • 13:00
👧👦 Ages 6–12

🔧 Chained Power, Time Travel, and Classic Engineering!

Classic cars represent the spirit of the past and the elegance of mechanical design.
Now, children are bringing that spirit back to life through the Bricks Challenge program!

With our STEM-based Vintage Car activity, kids are having fun while learning meaningful concepts:

🛠️ They explore how chained power transmission works
⚙️ They see how motion moves from one gear to another
🚗 They build and test their own mechanical car designs

By asking, “The car moves, but how?” they begin to understand real-world engineering.
They’re not just playing. They’re thinking, discovering, and growing. 🚀



🌟 Free Demo Class – Join Us!

📅 Starting Saturday, 13 September 2025
🕐 Every Saturday at 1:00 PM
📍 Walthamstow Central Library – Glass Meeting Room

Let your child build confidence and skills while having a great time.

✂️ Picture a scissor lift system:
It rises as it opens, and lowers as it closes…
But how does it actually work?

The answer?
Children figure it out – by building it themselves! 🔧

In Galileo Technic, the Scissors Lift model isn’t just a toy.
It’s a hands-on mechanism that brings mechanical thinking to life.
“I lifted it up, I brought it down… but how did I do that?”
That’s exactly what our young engineers discover through their own creations.
They think it, build it, and test it – all by themselves.
