Lego Club
Lego-based therapy (LeGoff et al 2014) is an evidence-based approach that aims to develop social communication skills in autistic children, such as sharing, turn-taking, following rules, using names and problem-solving.
In practice, children work in groups of three with each participant having a distinct role to build a Lego model collaboratively:
- Engineers use the Lego instructions and ask the Supplier for the specific pieces of Lego needed.
- Suppliers gives the Builder the pieces.
- Builders follow the building instructions from the Engineer in order to construct the model.
At White Ash we refer to this as ‘Lego Club’.
