03
Lego robots with endless possibilities
Lego is not just a toy that is built and placed, it can also move! Lego robots linked to electronic circuits, programming, etc., are the essence of playing Lego.
Therefore, Lego and bricks have an essential difference, Lego is not only static, single, but also dynamic and changeable!
Classification of LEGO bricks
The uses are different
By use, LEGO can be divided into two major types: lego toy series and LEGO teaching aids series.
What we commonly buy in the mall is the toy series, which has a wide variety of updates and iterations.
Lego teaching aids were originally used for special teaching, and will be marked with the LOGO of LEGO education. LEGO teaching aids are generally not available in offline shopping malls.
Lego teaching aids, do not pay attention to the appearance, focus on the internal structure, function and principle, children can be more intuitive, visual understanding of such as levers, gears, acceleration and other knowledge through the teaching aids, do-it-yourself, in the middle of learning, you can internalize the knowledge.
Features are different
Divided by functionality, LEGO divides into three categories: brick construction, mechanical construction, and Lego robots.
Brick building class
Children are just beginning to get exposed to LEGO's play of scenes, architecture, and bulk barrels (Lego Classic series), all of which belong to the theme of brick building.
This kind of LEGO construction, children look at the drawing instructions or rely on their own imagination, can build the finished model, which is conducive to the divergence of children's imagination and the expression of ideas.
The characteristic of this type of Lego is that it is statically built and cannot be moved by itself.
Mechanical construction class
The mechanical construction type belongs to the advanced brick construction class, and the mechanical theme construction class will use levers, wheels, gears, controllers, motors and other parts.
This type of LEGO has been able to move, but the characteristics are: simple, repetitive.
LEGO robots
Mechanical construction exercises children's ability to build complex structures, which also lays the foundation for the construction of programmed robots.
At this stage, children need to use programming (including graphical programming and high-level language programming) to control the robot to complete the specified action or task, and this successive connection action will also cultivate children's literacy, mathematical physical ability and social emotional skills to a greater extent.
Lego in this category is characterized by intelligence, automation, and computer thinking.
The shape size is different from the applicable age
According to the size of the shape and age, LEGO can be divided into two types: large particles and small particles.
Children aged 3-5 are suitable for playing large particle Lego, while children who are slightly older after 5 years old will advance to small particle Lego to improve the fine movements of the hand.

Lego has a variety of ways to play, but for children of different ages, Lego will have a different learning focus.
Children aged 3-4 can learn basic physics, mechanical principles, understand common sense of life, and enlighten scientific thinking in LEGO brick games;
Children aged 5-7 can combine "mechanical" tools such as gears, levers, pulleys, etc. to build more exquisite and dynamic objects to satisfy children's curiosity about life.
Children over the age of 8 will introduce the concept of programming and AI robots, so that children can understand the secrets behind intelligence and automation in life.
