About the Program
The W.A.F.F.L.E.S. FIRST LEGO League Discover program for ages 4-6 was founded in 2021. We run FIRST LEGO League Discover each fall, beginning in September and culminating in special celebration Festival.
In FIRST LEGO League Discover, teams of up to four students learn about a different real-world problem each season and develop an innovative solution for it. They work together to build a creative LEGO DUPLO model of their solution.
