LEGO Education BricQ Motion is the latest package introduced by LEGO for lower and upper elementary school students to be introduced to hands-on STEAM learning (Science, Technology, Engineering Arts and Mathematics). The Brothers Brick reviewed the 45401 LEGO Education BricQ Motion Essential Set earlier this year.
When first announced, one could only obtain these sets from the Education Store (US) and via distributors in UK. They are now available on the LEGO online shop for wider availability in US, Canada and the UK direct. You will be able to leverage any ongoing Gift-With-Purchase (GWP) as any other regular purchase in the online store.
Last year LEGO Education made available other kits that were typically only available via other channels and introduced them to the LEGO online store. This move was to provide educators at home during the pandemic access to these learning tools and kits. The Spike Prime sets and other Education kits are still available online.
