Getting Creative with LEGOs
It’s no secret that LEGO bricks can help unlock a child’s creative and inventive nature. While building with LEGOs bricks at home, most kids learn and discover new things without even realizing it!
Our variety of STEM programs includes working with motors, gears, simple machines, programming robotics, stop-motion animation, and Minecraft.

LetGoYourMind Summer Programs are for students between the ages of 4 and 13 in NH, MA, and VT. The programs focus on vital STEM subjects (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) and challenge kids to think creatively, problem-solve, work as a team, and reinforce skill sets while students have lots of fun! Our mission and philosophy are to provide high-quality, innovative, and challenging programs that encourage creativity and higher-level thinking skills while fostering self-confidence in a fun and safe environment.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Behind every fun and enriching LetgoYourMind program is our commitment to provide children with an opportunity to grow more competent in the important STEM subjects (science, technology, engineering and math), to become more confident in their ideas and abilities, and to provide the guidance to develop the important life skills of cooperation and collaboration.
Our teachers are currently teaching in public or private schools or are graduates or undergraduates involved in college programs relating to education or technology. All of our staff go through reference checks, a background screening process, and a thorough training program.
Along with our program teacher, there is always at least one other staff member present during each of our programs. Summer programs also have high school and/or college-aged students who work with the children in small groups. In addition, a director is present at each location for the entire week.
Our ratio is between 9:1, depending on the age of the students and the material being presented.
We ensure that there are always two staff members present at our programs at all times. Students are accompanied to the bathroom area, as well as any other time that they may need to leave the classroom.
Our summer themes change every year, as do our courses and activities.
Everyone should bring a lunch, snack, and beverage every day. Water is typically available at each site, so a refillable bottle is a good idea. More information is sent out prior to the start of the program.
The answer is no. Children may sign up for any course designed for their age group.
The Minecraft course is designed with higher level math and a lot of abstract thinking that an 8-year-old would probably not be able to grasp. We want all children to enjoy the courses and not feel left out.
Weather permitting; students are taken outside every day during their lunch break. An additional outside break may be taken, as well. Children should come prepared with the proper clothing and shoes for active play.
We create a different theme for each summer season, allowing us to design new challenges and building projects for the students. Our days are structured so that there is adequate time to encourage spontaneous creativity and fun. The program for younger students is a combination of short instruction periods followed by hands-on application, frequent group discussions and sharing periods, and time for unstructured, individual creativity. Activities are changed frequently and modified as necessary.
Older children are taught the basics of robot building and programming, along with stop-motion animation. They spend the majority of their time working in small groups to enable their robots to perform a series of tasks, and also to create an original video. Students are gathered together throughout the day for instruction as the need arises. Each program has a number of enthusiastic, motivating and knowledgeable counselors working with the teacher to encourage and help the students.
Our programs are enjoyed by kids with a wide range of interests. Prior experience with LEGO bricks or computers is not necessary, and both boys and girls do equally well. We find that students who are not as interested in sports or fine arts program do quite well and seem to find a niche in our STEM-based activities. It’s very rewarding to see each child leave with a new sense of accomplishment and self-esteem.
Unfortunately, no. As we all know, LEGO elements are very expensive. However, each child will be emailed pictures of their creations and their activities during the week. The older children will also get a copy of the stop motion animation video created by their individual groups.
A staff member accompanies each child whenever he/she leaves the classroom for any reason. A first aid kit, a list of parent contact numbers, and any pertinent medical information is kept by the director and teachers and is readily accessible at all times. Pickup by anyone other than a parent needs to be provided in advance, in writing. Parents must accompany their children and sign in each morning and out each afternoon. Staff members at each camp location have been trained in CPR and First Aid. All of the camp’s safety and emergency policies are available at each camp location and are also available by email.
