Construction therapy, sometimes known as Lego therapy, is a great way to develop children's social and communication skills by creating opportunities to develop turn taking, language, listening, problem solving, joint attention, conversational skills and resilience.

​

In the therapy there are three parts to play. The engineer, the supplier and the builder.

​

This therapy can be tailored to the group or individual's needs. Starting with simple exercises, then gradually moving to more challenging builds through teamwork and problem-solving. 

​

The therapy is ideal for children aged 5 to 11, but can be adapted for older children, including those with special needs.

​​

Construction Therapy can run from 6 weeks to a whole academic year depending on children's needs. Sessions are usually about 45 minutes in length. They can be delivered with a group of three children or to a family struggling to come together.
