The company provides a fresh and fun way for kids to learn the fundamentals of Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) by using LEGO® bricks in an imaginative and stimulating way. Their programmes are built around their proprietary model plans, with exciting themes that are relevant to children’s interests, all of which have been created by engineers and architects. Bricks 4 Kidz believes that children learn best through activities that engage their curiosity and creativity.
The Bricks 4 Kidz business model consists of various profit centres which emerge from in-school workshops, holiday camps, after-school classes and themed birthday parties for boys and girls aged 5-12 years.
Speaking about his decision to invest in this brand Karl said “I closely monitor international trends in the education sector and two areas that have emerged recently are the increased focus on teaching STEM, along with the need for creative and play based education. Bricks 4 Kidz stood out as a business that combined both of these elements and has already achieved phenomenal success across the globe”.
Bricks 4 Kidz currently delivers its activities in South County Dublin, Dublin City South, Fingal (County Dublin), Cork, Galway, Kilkenny, Waterford and Carlow and has been recognised at the annual Irish Franchise Awards on multiple occasions, most recently winning the Education Franchise of the Year Award at its 2024 Gala Ceremony. Karl’s success within the franchising industry in Ireland was also recognised at the Awards, where he claimed the coveted Leadership in Franchising accolade.
The potential of Bricks 4 Kidz has been recognised by both Dragons’ Den investor, Gavin Duffy and Financial Advisor, Eddie Hobbs. Ray D’Arcy revealed that LEGO is now the world’s most powerful brand. Ray praised the therapeutic benefits of LEGO and said in his view that it’s equivalent to mindfulness and meditation. He went on to say that “if somebody was to set up some sort of place where you go and just build LEGO all day, you’d get good results.
