Yakima, WA – Kids, families, and LEGO enthusiasts of all ages are invited to Yakima Central Library on Saturday, December 30th for Brickstravaganza!
Join us at 2:00pm for LEGO-themed crafts, activities, and a LEGO robot demonstration courtesy of AFOL’s Brick, Yakima’s LEGO specialty store. Then stay and play with cool new LEGOs while you watch the hilarious LEGO Batman Movie, beginning at 3:00pm.
“There are a lot of benefits to LEGOs that we want to help promote,” said programming and marketing librarian, Krystal Corbray. “Research has shown that while playing with LEGOs definitely is fun, it’s also a great way for kids to learn about math, spatial reasoning, and problem-solving. LEGOs also help kids to build or improve literacy skills, since they need to read and understand printed instructions. We’re always looking for ways to creatively support literacy and learning for patrons of all ages, so we’re hoping to have a good turn-out.”
