🏎Structured Roles: Children take on roles such as the "engineer" (who provides instructions), the "builder" (who assembles the LEGOs), and the "supplier" (who finds the correct pieces).
🏎Collaborative Building: The group works together to build a specific model based on a chosen set of instructions or a collaborative story.
🏎Skill Development: Through this process, children learn to- communicate, share and negotiate, problem-solve, take turns, focus

🧱Motivating: Taps into children's intrinsic interest in LEGO, making the therapy enjoyable and engaging.
🧱Predictable: The structured nature provides a predictable environment, which can be calming and regulating for children who struggle with unpredictable social situations.
🧱Evidence-Based: Research studies have documented improvements in social competence, interaction, and communication skills in children.
🧱Strengths-Based: Focuses on building on a child's natural interests and strengths rather than trying to change their core neurotype.
