If you register for the Snack Attack season now, you'll be able to use your same LEGO kit next year for Super Seniors! Super Senior registration will open on August 1st!! I hope you all had a great Snack Attack season and hope you are looking forward to Super Seniors for next year!! 2012 SUPER SENIORS Challenge - Coming August 2012 Can Junior FIRST® LEGO® League teams improve the quality of life for seniors by learning about the obstacles some people face as they get older? In the 2012, SUPER SENIORS(SM) Challenge, teams will learn about simple machines as they build a model made of LEGO® elements with a motorized moving part and create a team Show-Me Poster to represent their findings. Over 16,000 children ages 6 to 9 from 5 countries will learn about the challenges some seniors may have getting around, keeping in touch with friends and family or staying active and fit. Jr. FLL® has captured the imagination and minds of thousands of kids. Each year, the Challenge Advisory Team designs a new and exciting Challenge to ignite the inherent creativity in young kids. The end result of the design process is a Challenge with two defined parts - the Show-Me Poster and the Model. Let me know if you have any questions.
