Young Engineers – East Sydney and The Shire Young Engineers STEM and robotics programs
Give your child a birthday to remember!
A Young Engineers birthday party allows children to learn and have fun at the same time. It is a 90min hosted birthday party run at a venue of your choice. We will come to you.
We will bring all the equipment and parts for the children to build and create a model. There are 16 specially designed Young Engineers LEGO kits. If you have more than 16 children, we can organise another set of equipment with a logistics fee.
Venue recommendations: please provide indoor location with tables and chairs for all participating children. Ideally there are room elsewhere for children to race/battle.
Your Young Engineers birthday party will have the following itinerary:
- 10mins – Your host will introduce the children to Young Engineers and talk a bit about a topic that is related to the chosen model.
- 40mins – Children will build and enhance the model.
- 25mins – Children will race/battle/free play and work out ways to further modify the model
- 15mins – Children will disassemble and pack away their own kits
Below is a list of Young Engineers models from which you can choose for the party. Most of our models are enjoyed as a group. The children can have races or battles with the models. With every model, we offer improvement ideas and the children will find their own ways to enhance the model to make it better, faster, slower, more stronger etc.
Below is a list of all our birthday party models. The age is only as a recommendation. Choosing a model that is younger than your child’s age does not mean it will be less fun, it just means they will have more time to play and modify their model in their own ways.
| Model | Age | Description |
| Race car | 5+ | Make a race car and race with the others. Improve it to make it look better and make it go faster. |
| Spinning Top | 5+ | Motorised and non-motorised versions available. This is a LEGO version of spin top or Bey Blade. They will build and battle with it. Children will then improve it to keep winning battles. Need smooth surface to battle on. Easy model.
This is our classic and most popular model for birthday parties because it is very enjoyable as a group. |
| Pirate Ship | 6+ | Non-motorised. Amusement park pirate ship ride. Cannot race/battle. Children will play along side each other. Easy model. |
| Catapult | 6+ | Non-motorised. Children will have fun shooting targets with paper balls and they will have a competition in teams to score the highest. |
| Motorcycle | 7+ | Children will have a race with the motorcycles. Then improve its look and speed. |
| Elastic Car | 8+ | Non-motorised race car. Powered by elastic, similar to a pull back car. Children will have time to have a race with their elastic car and find ways to make it go faster. |

| Milkshake Mixer | 8+ | A handheld kitchen mixer used to make milkshake. This will be a very unique experience for the children. At the end of the model they will enjoy a milkshake made from a Lego milkshake mixer. Please note milkshake is made from a central place by the instructor so no big mess by all the children.
