Kern Autism Network, is happy to bring you once again an innovative and exciting workshop just for Autistic children!
About this Event

Welcome to Harry Potter LEGO!

Join Kern Autism Network Inc., in an innovative and exciting workshop just for our children! Research has been conducted on this therapeutic approach and the findings were positive. In the past pre-Covid, our organization held numerous LEGO Workshops, with HUGE SUCCESS. Over that time, things changed a bit on how we were able to deliver the event to occur each year. This year for a we have partnered with GOLDEN VALLEY HIGH SCHOOL Avid Club for the LEGO Workshop. This workshop allows the children to be creative, work on fine motor skills and social skills. It encourages and allows them to interact with an atypical peer in a naturalistic setting. As our LEGO Workshops continue, we bring you, LEGO Harry Potter!

Parental or caretaker participation is required. Supervision will be provided and there will be volunteers available, but to ensure the safety and well being of our participants, a parent/caretaker must be present. This workshop is now opened to siblings, with the attendance of a sibling diagnosed with Autism. Registration is required for each child/youth participating ONLY. This helps with the check in process.

Our theme is HARRY POTTER, so come dressed as your favorite character for the day! Join us and let's get social and have fun with LEGO's!

Studies have assessed the benefits of LEGO play in three measures of social competence – self-initiated social contact, duration of social interaction and reductions in “stereotyped” behaviors. Each of these showed significant gains over the pre-treatment and waiting-list levels.

Children with autism may be naturally attracted and motivated by systems of one kind or an other. LEGO is a highly systematic toy that appears intrinsically rewarding to children on the autistic spectrum. This project confirmed that LEGO Therapy leads to improvement in social skills.
