About Astronomy LEGO brick club
Join our Astronomy team for an engaging LEGO brick build session.
Make builds inspired by astronomy – from star stories and constellation tales to rockets and time balls.
Each session will have prompts based on our themes at the Royal Observatory Greenwich including space, time and navigation. You and your little ones can build together or compete against each other to make the best LEGO creations!
