Kidizens LEGO Camps for the SF Bay Area

Would your child like to build and be the Mayor of an entire city of LEGOs?

Would you like to leverage your child’s love of LEGOs to help them learn critical real-life,
21st century skills and strategies?

Kidizens inspires students to become good citizens and future leaders, one LEGO brick at a time. The Kidizens LEGO Leadership Camps include intensive action and excitement-packed sessions, where children create their own small civilization built with LEGOs and serve as Co-Mayors for a week. The Co-Mayors manage the economy, the residents and their needs, city departments and services and deal with unexpected problems and situations in an age-appropriate manner. In a fast-paced dynamic environment, the kids develop leadership, SEL and interpersonal skills while working together to problem solve and deal with natural disasters, resident problems and financial crises.
This is a rare opportunity for kids to role play as responsible leaders in addition to wearing many other hats – think out of the box and on their feet, problem solve and come to decisions in a fast, action-packed, exciting environment. They also learn how to develop a public policy platform and campaign as well as address residents through speeches against a real opponent.

General FAQ

In order to get the full Kidizens Summer Camp experience, we recommend our new 2-week camp program. During the action-packed 10-day LEGO journey, the campers will work with a team of fellow Co-Mayors to build and manage an entire LEGO city. The second week allows the Mayors to dive deeper into city governance and build upon the community foundation laid during the first week.
