New LEGO Education moon and Mars kits challenge kids to 'Build. Solve. Invent.'

LEGO is returning space exploration to its building blocks.

The toy company, which in recent years has released a line of detailed historic NASA spacecraft, is now providing kids with the pieces needed to not just build, but also solve and invent the next-generation architecture needed to live on the moon and Mars.

The 519-piece Moon Mission Science Kit and more advanced 933-piece Mars Science Mission Kit retail for $50 and $100, respectively, and are intended for children ages 8 (for the moon) and 9 (for Mars) on up. Both kits are shipping now from LEGO's online shop.
