Get ready, young builders — Block Kids is back!

Students in K–6th grade are invited to join us for a FREE building competition where creativity, problem-solving, and construction fun come together. Kids will design and build their own construction-related project using Lego-style blocks and other materials — no experience needed!

All participants receive a goodie bag and snack.

Prizes awarded for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place.
