STORME - Taking childhood learning to the next level.

STORME is the action-oriented learning acronym. Unlike STEM, which has become curriculum focused, STORME goes far beyond by identifying the experiential nature of learning that builds skills as well as knowledge for your child to succeed. For 2025, we have adapted all of our lessons and activities to this new and engaging style of learning. STORME lessons are designed to be cross-curriculum focused and incorporate personal skill growth like organization and risk taking. Combined with our learning through play style, STORME will truly engage your child into the joyful nature of learning and not just the outcome. You can learn more about STORME at www.storme.info

Learning Values That Matter

We work on 4 principle values with our students: Imagination is Powerful, Trying is Learning, Effort is Exponential, and Collaboration Leads to Better. All of our programs incorporate these values in a practical manner. The encouragement and explanation of how these values can help students is emphasized from their first class to their last. The best learning happens when there is a good amount of fun involved, so even with a challenging lesson, we make sure there is a joyful outcome.

The Team

Children love the Brick Labs team because we work hard at earning their trust and respect by actively engaging them in joyful learning day in and day out. Our team has grown not only in size, but in breadth of knowledge and experience over this past year. From developing our Leaders in Training, creating staff development plans and hiring highly qualified experts in their fields, the Brick Labs team is ready to deliver beyond your and your child's expectations.

Community

We believe we have a role to play in our community both locally and globally.

First, by teaching children to love learning. Our programs and activities are designed to be joyful experiences so that they build their creativity, curiosity and confidence. Three elements necessary for their future success.

Second, by giving back by assisting with fund raising efforts, providing financial assistance for programs for those in need, and developing our older students through our leader in training programs.

Third, through sustainability efforts in reducing waste at parties by including non-disposable tableware in our party packages; using only rechargeable batteries in all our learning kits; taking in used LEGO donations to keep LEGO out of landfill; and limiting printed marketing and teaching material whenever possible.

Fourth, creating a safe and welcoming space for all children to learn and laugh in regardless of abilities and backgrounds.

Additionally, we have committed to doing more community outreach with schools, not-for-profits, and charitable organizations to support fundraising efforts and create accessible learning opportunities for all builders, regardless of financial status.

2025 is going to be an exciting year for your child at Brick Labs. From our welcoming team to our updated camps, classes, clubs and events, you will love the Brick Labs experience.

Our most exciting launch is STORME – its STEM to the next level! More experiential and skills focused than ever before, this pedagogy truly engages children to love learning because it gives them the “why?” behind the lesson.

Learn more about STORME

Our growth this past year has been truly exciting (as well as extremely challenging to keep up with!) Going in to 2025, we’ve hired a number of new managers to lead our various services (Entertainment, Camps, and Education). They’re tasks will be to improve not only the delivery of programs, but our communication with parents and our community. They’ll be able to deal with you faster one-on-one to address your needs and queries.

More services are on the way for 2025 as well. First and foremost is to bring back the “drop-in”. Loved by parents and children alike, this flexible and engaging activity was at the heart of Brick Labs being part of the community. Second, more family based events where families can join us for a few hours to play together without distraction. Third, more adult focused programs. These include corporate team building, teacher technology training on the LEGO Spike, and AFOL events. Fourth, an online resource for parents and children to access for some fun LEGO activities to do at home. They’ll include both educational activities or just fun ways to use your LEGO together as a family.

We’ll let you know as each of these becomes available.

Wishing everyone well for 2025! John Neretlis, Director, Brick Labs Inc.
