FIRST LEGO League
FIRST® LEGO® League guides youth through STEM learning and exploration at an early age. From Discover, to Explore, and then to Challenge, students will understand the basics of STEM and apply their skills in an exciting competition or exhibition while building habits of learning, confidence, and teamwork skills along the way.

Three levels of FIRST LEGO League help children progress their interest and knowledge of STEM subjects. Our youngest students Discover the fundamentals of STEM while building LEGO DUPLO models to solve the challenge. They then Explore further, putting their skills into practice with LEGO Spike Essentials technology. Finally, students rise to the Challenge by competing as a team in a mission-based robotics game.
