The pixel (a word invented from "picture element") is the basic unit of programmable color on a computer display or in a computer image. ... Up to three bytes of data are allocated for specifying a pixel's color, one byte for each major color component. A true color or 24-bit color system uses all three bytes.

A: In digital imaging, a pixel(or picture element) is the smallest item of information in an image. Pixels are arranged in a 2-dimensional grid, represented using squares. Each pixel is a sample of an original image, where more samples typically provide more-accurate representations of the original.

A pixel is the basic logical unit in digital graphics. Pixels are combined to form a complete image, video, text, or any visible thing on a computer display.

Do your kids like Lego Duplo blocks? My 3-year-old LOVES them! They are perfect for his little hands to manipulate and build things with. While he was playing with them the other day, I came up with an activity for them for Christmas! I created Christmas pictures for him to create using Duplo blocks. He LOVED it!!

This is a super easy activity to set up! Simply print the printable (find the download at the bottom of this post!), laminate (if you'd like), and then present them to your child. Have your child use Lego Duplo blocks to match them to the pictures.

Of course they don't have to look perfect, but it's a good way to practice color matching and color recognition.
There are 6 pictures in this set:
As you can tell in my picture above, you don't have the use the same shade of color. I couldn't find enough green blocks, so we used two shades. You can also use different sizes of blocks. It's a fun way for the child to problem solve and see how they can fit the right amount of blocks onto the picture.

I'm offering it as a FREE printable for you! Just click here to download -> Christmas Lego Duplo Pictures

I'd love to know how you use this printable...maybe with your child at home or in a center at school.

However you use it, I want to with you a Merry Christmas!!

This activity can also be assigned at home as a chrismas collaborative fun activity for parents and children.

Objective:

1. Students will build 3D Christmas-themed objects (such as a tree, candy cane, and star) using LEGO blocks. The activity will teach them about design, spatial reasoning, and creativity through hands-on building.

Materials Needed:

1. LEGO blocks in various colors (green, red, white, yellow, brown, etc.)

2. Grid templates (paper or laminated) to represent the base of the 3D builds

3. Printable Christmas-themed designs (for tree, candy cane, star)

4. Optional: Tablets or computers with basic coding software (e.g., Scratch, Blockly)

Activity Steps

1. Build a 2D Pixel Art Template (15 minutes)

Provide students with Christmas-themed pixel art templates (e.g., Christmas tree, candy cane, star).

Students will use the LEGO blocks to fill in the grid according to the template, creating 2D representations of the designs.

2. Create 3D Pixel Models (30 minutes)

Once the 2D designs are complete, students will turn them into 3D models by stacking the blocks.

Christmas Tree: Use green blocks for the tree, brown blocks for the trunk, and yellow for the star at the top.

Candy Cane: Alternate red and white blocks in a curved shape.

Star: Build a symmetrical star shape using yellow blocks.

3. (Optional) Extend to Coding (20 minutes)

For students who are ready, introduce a simple coding extension where they can recreate their LEGO designs digitally using basic coding tools (e.g., Scratch or Blockly).

They can write simple code to place blocks in the correct positions (e.g., "Place one green block at row 1, column 1").

Learning Outcomes

1. Develop creativity and problem-solving skills by building 3D structures.

2. Improve spatial reasoning by translating 2D designs into 3D models.

3. Optional: Introduce basic coding concepts through the digital design extension.

Example LEGO Designs

Christmas Tree: Green blocks for the tree, brown for the trunk, and yellow for the star on top.

Candy Cane: Alternate red and white blocks to form a curved shape.

Star: Symmetrical design using yellow blocks to form a star shape.

Assessment

Observe students as they follow the templates and create their 3D models.

Evaluate the creativity and stability of their structures.

If coding is included, assess how well students recreate their designs in the digital tool.
