A message to our Build & Play Kids…Keeping on Building your World
What a great time Purpose Academy students had when Build & Play came out. I was amazed at how middle schoolers could be so creative and have so much fun with simple resources. Our students have been asking over and over if we are going to do it again. Such a great opportunity for the kids. It was so much fun to watch them and see all the different ways they came up with using the materials they had.

With Build & Play, the children are in charge which is what they love, they aren’t behind a desk they use their brain to create anything they want, nothing is impossible or wrong when it comes the B&P sessions.
