Yes to play, learning, and joy for all kids 🙌 Meselech, a teacher in Tigray, Ethiopia, is using a teaching method called LEGO® Six Bricks to make learning interactive and engaging for her students, many of whom are refugees or have been deeply affected by conflict. Trained through the IRC’s PlayMatters program, these playful learning approaches in the classroom are helping the kids focus, connect, and heal from trauma. The IRC and The LEGO Foundation support millions of children and caregivers to use play as a tool, not just for learning, but for reconnecting kids to their childhood.
