LEGO and Nike transform playtime with innovative playground concept in Shanghai

This summer, LEGO China launched its Build the Change workshop, inviting children to use LEGO bricks to design and share their own ideas. The exercise revealed how kids naturally view movement and play as one and the same.

Inspired by this creativity, LEGO teamed up with Nike to reimagine what a playground could be. As part of Nike’s Move to Zero program, the collaboration drew from a child’s simple concept of a 2×3 LEGO brick, transforming LEGO pieces into tools for movement, exploration, and fun.

The result came to life at Baoshan No.2 Central Primary School in Shanghai, where students were encouraged to experience sports the way they build with LEGO—by creating their own routes, experimenting freely, and turning even a short 10-minute break into a world of play.
