Construction Set takes the experience of playing with LEGO sets and brings it to your mobile device. It is a building block game where students can put together pieces of a kit to make various larger builds. Students assemble the pieces and place them on a board which increases their experience score. A picture guide next to the build shows players which pieces they need and in what order to complete the build. As players progress through various kits, they gain experience and can then showcase the builds on a shelf in the main menu. 

Construction Set is a free with an ad-free option for purchase in-app.


Construction Set  helps kids practice and improve the following skills:

 

Self Control: Managing our actions, feelings and behaviors.

Construction Set provides the “kits” for students along with a guide for their completion. This can act much like certain coloring apps in that it can help calm a student or help them to focus on something rather than a negative emotion. Because the action in the game is guided and focused, students can quickly de-escalate negative emotions by focusing on putting a kit together. 

 

Self Awareness: Understanding our own actions, thoughts and feelings.

Games such as Construction Set can help students by acting as a tool for de-escalating negative emotions. If students know that there are tools that can help them reframe or redirect their emotions, they are building a better sense of self-awareness. Guided play like that found in the Construction Set game can help students understand that there are productive options available for when they are feeling angry or stressed.
