Welcome to Brick Labs’ Summer Camps 2025. Toronto’s best LEGO summer camp! We have a fantastic summer planned for children aged 5 and up with over 20 different themes for every interest and LEGO lover.
LEGO Summer Camp runs daily from 8.30am to 4.00pm at our main campus 41 Scarsdale Rd Unit 12 (York Mills & Leslie) with free extended care until 5pm. Campers will need to provide their own snacks and lunch (nut-free), except on Friday, when we provide a pizza lunch.

Drop Off
Brick Labs is located at 41 Scarsdale Road – Unit 12, Toronto. Our entrance, with a drop-off zone, is in the drive way on the south side of the building. Drop-off will take place at this entrance daily for all campers. The drop-off/pick-up lane is now one-way from the back of the property to the front. Please circle around the building and approach our doors from east to west.
Drop off starts at 8:30am daily. Late arrivals may ring the doorbell and we will be with you as quickly as possible. You may also park your vehicle in any non-reserved spot on the property while you drop off your camper.
If your child has a fever or is experiencing flu like symptoms (vomiting), please keep them home for a period of 24 to 48 hours or until symptoms no longer exhibit.

Your child should not bring:
- Cell phone (no exceptions)
- Electronics, tablets, cameras, etc.
- Any foods with nuts

Pick-Up
Daily pick-up is between 4:00pm and 5:00pm at our main door (same area as drop-off). Upon arrival, please provide our team member with your name and your camper’s and we will have your camper come out to you.
On Thursday afternoon at pick-up or Friday morning at drop-off, we encourage you to make time to come in and view your campers’ creations.
Absences/Late Arrivals
If your camper will be arriving late or will be absent, as a courtesy please let us know via email info@bricklabs.ca or a call at (416) 901-1390. Unfortunately we will not provide make-up days or credit for any days missed.
Safety Protocols
On the first day of every camp week, campers will be briefed on all safety protocols prior to the first instructional period. Briefings will include safety protocols for evacuation, lock down, travelling to playgrounds, personal safety/behaviour and hygiene. Campers are expected to follow safety procedures and protocols at all times. Staff will provide reminders for younger campers regularly. Campers who openly disregard safety procedures and protocols repeatedly may be expelled from camp without refund.
For camper safety, our facility has video surveillance equipment in all public areas managed by Brick Labs Inc. There are also video cameras located around the exterior of the property under our landlord’s control.
Hand washing sinks are available in the main hallway, and children will be required to use them regularly. Campers will be able to use washrooms whenever necessary. An accessible washroom is available.
Each camp cohort will have a separate classroom and assigned specific instructor(s). Cohorts will be assigned at the beginning of the week based on age. Siblings/friends may be grouped together if requested.
Parents must advise us, if they have not already done so, of any allergies their camper has, and treatment if required (epi-pen or medication).
Campers who are injured or become ill during the day will be provided with appropriate first aid and if necessary, medical attention. Parents will be notified as soon as possible. Campers who exhibit flu-like symptoms will be isolated and parents contacted as soon as possible to arrange pick-up.
Behaviour
Abusive, bullying or harassing behaviour will not be tolerated. Parents will be contacted should their camper be the instigator or if their child is being abused, bullied or harassed.
Campers who use inappropriate language, demonstrate behaviour that is not socially acceptable, or regularly break rules will be cautioned, removed from their cohort temporarily (timed out) and have their parents informed. Continued behaviour of this nature will result in expulsion from camp without refund.
Campers who physically abuse a camper or counsellor shall be removed from their cohort and placed in supervised isolation. Parents shall be notified and required to attend camp immediately. The Camp Director shall determine the consequences for the camper. They may consult with the parents but shall make the decision that is in the best interest of camp safety.
The Camp Director, on a first offence, must make a decision as a consequence of physical abuse or sustained bullying or harassment from the following list:
- Suspension for the remainder of the day and/or following day;
- Suspension for the duration of the camp program; or
- One year suspension from Brick Labs programs.
On a second offence, the Camp Director must suspend the camper for a period of one year.
All incidents must be documented as per the Brick Labs Inc. Abuse and Harassment Policy.
Dress/Attire
Comfy clothing that is suitable for active outdoor times is expected on all days. We suggest campers have a sweater just in case they find the temperature a little cool inside or out. Shoes are required indoors at all times. Running shoes and hats are strongly recommended, as well as any other items appropriate for outdoor activity. Ensure all clothing and personal items are labeled with name or initials (iron-on labels or sharpies work well).
Snacks and Lunch
Campers need to provide their own snacks and lunch throughout the week, except for Friday lunch (see below). Each day has two snack breaks, so please ensure sufficient healthy, nut-free snacks are packed. If your child requires their lunch to be warmed up, please pack it in a microwavable container, and our team will gladly warm it for them.
Occasionally during the week, we will provide campers with “freezies” or popsicles. If you would prefer your child not receive these treats, please let us know at drop-off or by email.
Snacks and lunch must be taken in the designated lunchroom or outdoors. Campers are not permitted to consume food or beverage in classrooms or common spaces.
Friday Pizza Lunch
It is a tradition at Brick Labs that Friday is pizza lunch day. We supply pizza (cheese or pepperoni/cheese). Pizza will be served by staff to campers. If your camper requires a special selection (gluten free, dairy free) please let us know via email as soon as possible. We unfortunately cannot accommodate for campers who do not like pizza; please ensure they are provided their own lunch on Friday. Pizza is ordered from Pizza Nova.
Instructional Time
We have three or four instructional periods per day, approximately one hour each. These will take place in their assigned classroom and follow a specific lesson plan for their themed camp. If possible, we will take some of these lessons outdoors.
Outdoor Time
There are three specific outdoor periods scheduled daily for physical activity. We have a variety of on-site and off-site areas that we use including Southwell Park, Bond Park, and the Don Mills Trail. Barring severe weather, we try to spend a minimum of 50 minutes outside for each session. Outdoor time is less structured, and children are provided with a variety of sports equipment and toys to choose from.
Free Build Time
Our campers love having some “free-build” time where they can unleash their creative side or build a kit from our LEGO library of sets. These sessions are scheduled at the start and end of each day as time permits.
Creations
Throughout the week, your camper’s creations will be kept for display on Thursday afternoon (after 3:30pm) and Friday morning at 8:30am for your viewing. Please come in and take photos of their creations. Creations can not be taken home.
Photography/Video
Our campers are truly excited by their builds and creations and want to share everything they have done with their parents. Throughout the week we may be taking photographs or videos of your camper’s creations and camp experiences. We try to share these recordings only with the parent of the child in the photo or video during the week via email. Identifiable photos/videos may be used for social media posts, marketing or the like only with your express permission. Please advise us via email if you would prefer no photos/videos be taken of your child.
We have extensive video surveillance inside public areas of our facility. We may also use video surveillance at outdoor activities when appropriate and practical. These videos are only used for safety, security or training purposes. Access to recordings is limited to management personnel only.
Communication
We believe strongly in good communication with our client families. We do our best to interact daily with parents at drop off and pick up to address your questions or special requests.
During the day, we can be reached at 416-901-1390 or by email at info@bricklabs.ca. The Director can be reached at any time at 647 229-1664 or at john@bricklabs.ca.
If your camper expresses any concerns about their camp experience or there is an incident you would like us to address, please contact us as soon as possible so we can take action right away.
Purchases
We maintain a small selection of items for purchase. Purchases can be made daily between 4:00pm and 5:00pm by credit, debit, cash or charged to your credit card on file.
Special Requests
We will do our best to accommodate special requests such as, but not limited to:
- Being in the same cohort as a friend
- Reminder for bathroom visits
- Birthday recognition
- Prepared for an early departure
Please email us at info@bricklabs.ca or speak to us at drop-off or pick-up.
Director’s Note
Each and every day, we remind campers that our job is to make sure they have a safe and fun day… in that order. It is a simple message that has worked well over the years.
Our staff are trained to make Brick Labs’ camp an entertaining and educational experience. Sometimes the skills learned are “hard” such as robotics, engineering, etc., while others are more “soft” skills including collaboration, communication, respect, effort, and pride. Our goal is to build creative, curious and confident learners in our community.
We appreciate your support, questions and feedback.
