Hi readers! I’m so excited about today’s giveaway!
As many of you know we’ve been absolutely loving the LEGO Education products lately. And my kiddos are super excited that we’ve added them into our curriculum this year.
We’re going to be doing a co-op with the LEGO Education Simple & Motorized Mechanisms Base Set this year, but I’ll have more to share on that later.
Today I have the pleasure of reviewing the LEGO Education WeDo Construction Set and Software for you. This stuff is so cool, I had no idea!
Literally.
I had no idea until my friend’s 12 year old showed me how to use it.
And yes, I felt old.
But then I realized how cool this product is!
As I mentioned, we received the LEGO Education WeDo Construction Set, Activity Pack, and Software set. We downloaded the Farris Wheel instructions from their online resources, then built the project using the WeDo 9580 + 9585 sets combined.
Once our project was complete, we installed the LEGO Education WeDo software pack to my computer. That’s when Trevor came to help bail me out.
I tried to figure out the software on my own.
Because I have an aversion to reading instructions.
Then I gave up and Trevor came to the rescue.
Here’s a short video we made on using the software to power your LEGO Education creation…apparently it’s really not all that complicated. So I’m thinking I was just having an “off” day. Yeah.

And just to show you how cool LEGO Education is, I am giving away one of the Homeschool Simple Machines Pack with a Printed Teacher’s guide to help get you started! (That’s over a $100 kit people, free for one of you!)

My older kids are hooked on the LEGO robotics. These would be awesome for my little ones that don’t understand the robotics yet.
My son LOVES anything Lego I think he would especially love the simple and powered machines set.
The animals kit would be really fun!
We would love the Lego Education WeDo Resource Pack. My boys love playing with their Mindstorms robot as well.
We Do Construction and the minifig sets! Thanks for the chance.
Wow, I’m new to this and didn’t know they made sets this intricate. My boys love Legos. I can imagine what they could start building. I’d love to win the simple machines pack right now. Thanks for the giveaway.
My 2 boys would LOVE the robotics Legos. But i love the homeschool kit that you got! What an awesome giveaway! My boys are in desperate need for more Legos to their collection, to re-connect that interest to build. I will have to buy some of these for Christmas. 🙂
I like the kit that is for Language Arts.
My children have recently been very interested in Legos. I think this would be a great addition for them.
Our three kids love to build things that moved and a convention they fell in love with the simple machine set!
