Tumbleweed Posted October 1, 2012 Share Just checked on Kalahari, they also have "The Lego Technic Idea Book". looks like fun for the slightly older kids I've seen some Technic sets at 8+, but most of it is more suited to teens and older. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Pal Posted October 14, 2013 Share If you have children in school ( i think this is aimed at high school) have a look at this program aimed at school kids, http://www.fllsa.org/ its a world wide challenge involving Lego and their micro controllers, think Robotics... They have an international competition, in 2011 a South African team came 2nd in the world.

They have an international competition, in 2011 a South African team came 2nd in the world. A couple of primary schools in my area use to take part in this. I think its awesome. I hope my son gets to also take part when he is older. I've got a Mindstorm NXT at home and its been our father-son project to build one robot at a time. He loves it and he is only 6. I cannot wait to teach him how to program it as well. Cuppa Bru and Al Pal 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christopher Brunsdon Posted October 24, 2013 Share Came across these this weekend... I have Ninjago keyring and my son has the Lego Construction Man torch. The torch is great and he loves it, need to get his sister one now as well. We actually use them both a lot around the house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
