Unlocking Creativity and Problem-Solving: The LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® Experience at HOAG Summer School

Remember when playing with LEGO® bricks was just about building towers and spaceships? At HOAG Summer School, we’re taking those colourful bricks to a whole new level with LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY®. 

This isn’t your average playtime – it’s a powerful tool that’s helping our students think bigger, dream bolder, and solve problems in ways they never imagined.

What’s LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® all about?

Imagine a room full of eager young minds, surrounded by thousands of LEGO® bricks. But instead of just building for fun, they’re using these bricks to tackle real-world challenges, express complex ideas, and discover new ways of thinking. That’s the magic of LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY®.

This isn’t just about snapping bricks together. It’s a carefully crafted method that taps into something special – the connection between our hands and our brains. When we build with our hands, it sparks creativity and helps us think in new ways. It’s like unlocking a secret door in our minds!

Why LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® at HOAG?

At HOAG, we’re all about preparing students for a world that’s changing faster than ever. We know that tomorrow’s leaders need more than just book smarts – they need creativity, communication skills, and the ability to solve tricky problems. That’s where LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® comes in.

Here’s how we’re using it:

  1. The Idea Incubator: Students use LEGO® bricks to build models of their wildest ideas. It’s amazing to see abstract concepts come to life in 3D!
  2. The Problem Solvers’ Club: We tackle real-world challenges using LEGO® models. It’s a hands-on way to learn design thinking and see problems from new angles.
  3. Team Building: Nothing brings a group together like a shared LEGO® challenge. Students learn to communicate, collaborate, and appreciate different perspectives.
  4. Storytelling and Presentation: Using LEGO® models to explain ideas helps students become more confident and articulate speakers.
