Talking Points
- Let's start by exploring the different Lego pieces we have. What shapes and sizes do you see? Remember, there are no right or wrong ways to build with Lego. Just let your imagination guide you.
- When you're stuck or not sure how to proceed, try looking at your creation from a different angle. Sometimes a fresh perspective can spark new ideas.
- Don't be afraid to make mistakes. Building with Lego is all about trial and error. Every mistake is a learning opportunity to improve your design.
- Remember, there's no rush in building with Lego. Take your time, enjoy the process, and celebrate your achievements no matter how big or small.
