What we do

Programmes and projects

From putting quality early childhood education on the global agenda to making playful learning a reality for millions of children, our programmes and projects aim to make children’s lives better by making sure that the fundamental value of play is understood, embraced and acted upon.

Research Centre

The LEGO Foundation’s Centre for Creativity, Play, and Learning is tasked with understanding and communicating the role of play in supporting a more creative and resilient society. To do this, we focus our efforts on three primary areas: the impact of learning through play on children's development and lifelong learning, translating evidence on learning through play into practice and transforming evidence into experiences.

PlayFutures

The LEGO Foundation funds and supports the development of PlayFutures, a global research and innovation community supported by an online platform.

LEGO® Idea Studio

The LEGO Idea Studio develops and facilitates learning through play experiences that build a foundation for a deeper understanding of creativity and the LEGO Idea.

LEGO® Idea Conference

The LEGO Idea Conference is the LEGO Foundation's annual flagship event where some 400 participants meet to discuss children's play, learning and development.
