This season, the FIRST LEGO League (FLL) unveiled the theme “MasterPeice” it resonated with everyone in the team. The theme called for an exploration of passions, and our team dived right in, focusing on the one thing we all share: hobbies.
Hobby Talk: More than Just Pastime Chatter
Our initial meetings transformed into lively discussions about our hobbies. It was a moment of reflection and sharing, as team members rattled off their current hobbies and passionately advocated for their favorites. It wasn’t just about what we loved to do in our free time; it was about understanding why these activities resonated with us on a personal level.

Each team member didn’t just list their hobbies – they made a compelling case for them. Arguments ranged from the therapeutic effects of painting to the Leg-pumping exhilaration of biking. This wasn’t just about choosing a hobby; it was about understanding the heart and soul behind each one.

Sharing the Love: The Art of Hobby Exhibition
A significant portion of our brainstorming revolved around the idea of sharing. How could we take these personal hobbies and make them accessible and engaging for others? From interactive workshops to hobby-centric exhibits, we dreamed up a myriad of ways to bring our passions to a larger audience.

The Immersive Hobby Experience
Our exploration took a deeper turn when we delved into the concept of immersive hobbies. What does it mean to truly immerse oneself in a hobby? We discovered that it’s about creating a world where the hobbyist is completely engaged, where every sense is awakened, and where time seems to stand still. This idea reshaped our perspective, making us realize that hobbies aren’t just activities; they are experiences.

The ‘Masterpiece’ theme, at its core, was a celebration of passion and creativity. As our FLL team navigated this journey, we not only learned more about each other’s hobbies but also discovered the profound impact hobbies can have on our lives. This season shapes up to be more than just a competition; it was an ode to personal passions and the art of sharing them with the world.
