We have built an entire business using the LEGO product by developing
our own curriculum and resources.  We have both outreach programs and
in-house programs that range from 2-hour activities building small
quadruped LEGO robots (which we did at the Ontario Science Centre as
part of the Robot Zoo) to an exhaustive week-long camp program that
utilizes the LEGO products as part of an applied-technology camp.  Our
programs include enrichment activities for individuals and groups and
academic activities that are tied to, in our case, the Ontario
curriculum.

We have chosen to not use the LEGO software or curriculum.  Our
rationale is that we want our participants to have a unique activity
with us.

Hi, all:
     I am interested in knowing whether or not your museums use LEGOs in
your
in-house or outreach educational programs or if you have a LEGO-based
exhibit
or LEGO center.   Please describe briefly your use of LEGOs.   Thanks,
Barbara Flagg
