History of Bricks 4 Kidz
The BRICKS 4 KIDZ model, was founded by Michelle Cote in St. Augustine, FL. Michelle started an after-school Spanish Class (outside the school system). In the Spring of 2008 while filling out the forms to become a "School Board Vendor," teaching Spanish at the school the following school year, Michelle noticed a category (on the form) for "Creative Science." Her son loves to play with Lego® bricks, and she thought to herself…"Maybe I could lead a Creative Science Lego® class too." Michelle was awarded the bid for both the after- school Spanish and the Creative Science Lego® class. That summer Michelle advertised a Spanish Camp and a Lego® Camp. She had 3 children sign up for the Spanish and 35 children sign up for the Lego® camp!
 After seeing the excitement over the Lego® bricks, Michelle decided to go with the Lego® after-school class in the fall...and it took off. That Fall, Michelle found herself at 3 different elementary schools with an average of 20 students in each class every week. In addition to teaching classes at the public schools, Michelle also taught a home school Lego® class during the day while her children were at school.
Our Model
Bricks 4 Kidz provides project-based programs designed to teach principles and methods of engineering to children, ages 3-12, using LEGO® bricks.
Now, just a year later, Michelle has contracts with 10 schools in the St. Augustine area!
