Well, LEGOLAND Malaysia just cranked that childhood dream up to eleven with their 2025 School Challenge – and this time, they're sending winners all the way to Korea. This isn't your average school competition: kids from across Asia, armed with nothing but LEGO bricks and wild imaginations, competing to build their dream destinations. Whether it's an underwater city or a space colony, if you can dream it, you can brick it.

Who knew education could be this fun? What's New in the Brick Game? This year's challenge is serving up some serious upgrades.

Talk about pressure! The Prize Package: Where Dreams Get Oppa-Sized But here's the real deal: winners get to jet off to LEGOLAND Korea (if you're in the older categories) or score a sweet staycation at LEGOLAND Malaysia (for the junior builders). Plus, all finalists get to live it up with a 3D2N stay at the LEGOLAND Hotel – because who doesn't want to sleep in a room where even the walls are LEGO-themed? The challenge is split into three age groups: Junior Builders (7-9 years) Primary Powerhouses (10-12 years) Secondary Masterminds (13-17 years) Each team needs 3-4 students and one teacher (probably to make sure nobody eats the pieces). From Bricks to Big Breaks: Why This Isn't Just Child's Play CS Lim, LEGOLAND Malaysia's VP, isn't just playing around. 'This isn't just about building cool stuff,' he explains during the launch event in TRX today. We're talking problem-solving, critical thinking – the kind of skills these kids will need in the real world. Even online travel agency getting in on the action. Their Malaysia GM, Stephane Thong, is stoked about sending winners to Korea. Think about it – these kids will go from building their dream destinations to actually visiting one!
