Children take their first steps in the world of Science, Technology and Engineering.<\/p>\n<p>Through playful activities, children explore concepts and phenomena from the world around them, creating one or more constructions at a time. Through the unique stories that enrich each activity and keep their interest undiminished, the little engineers are called to look for solutions to specific problems.<\/p>\n<p>The educational material of the LEGO DUPLO Education that is used, is the most suitable for the age of the children as it consists of large pieces that are easy to handle by the small hands of our children. In combination with the relevant audiovisual material and the specially designed worksheets, children are encouraged to make observations, verify their predictions and draw conclusions.<\/p>\n<p>Through experiential activities with materials familiar to them, children acquire knowledge in a fun way, adapted to their age so that they love the sciences and acquire a positive attitude towards them in their later school life.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_gallery type=&#8221;image_grid&#8221; images=&#8221;9830,9832,12221,9835,9839&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_video link=&#8221;https:\/\/youtu.be\/WUcg7vYqSOI&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_message icon_type=&#8221;entypo&#8221; icon_entypo=&#8221;entypo-icon entypo-icon-star-empty&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Program Goal<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The purpose of the program &#8220;Youngster Engineers&#8221; is to get acquainted with simple concepts of physics, mathematics, engineering and technology.
