Every year, FIRST® LEGO® League releases a new Challenge based on a real-world, scientific theme.

Starting with Discover, children are introduced to the fundamentals of STEM while working together to solve fun challenges and building models using LEGO® DUPLO® bricks.

As participants progress into Explore, children will take their background knowledge of STEM and put it into practice as they work in teams to design and build robots using the LEGO Education WeDo 2.0 system.

Once they are ready to move into a competitive setting, they join Challenge and apply their STEM skills combined with critical thinking to work with a team, build a robot, and compete in an exciting, mission-based robotics game.

For 2021/22 season, its partner Stein Hanse e.V. initiates and organizes a LEGO building contest - in which all FIRST LEGO League teams can also participate and build their own CARGO CONNECT world! 

The building contest is open to everyone, young and old, FIRST LEGO League participants or not. The builders of the three best structures per FIRST LEGO League region (!) will win great LEGO sets as prizes! 

For more information on how to participate and how it works, please see the official flyer, which you are welcome to share! 

The building contest is part of an independent supporting program and is not related to the regular FIRST LEGO League judging.

NOTE: The closing date for your buildings has been extended!
