    Blocks are an effective tool for expression and communication and improve emotional regulation. Utilizing Lego®s in art therapy can reduce stress and increase creativity and self- expression, enhancing a sense of acceptance and problem- solving skills, leading to behavioral modification in children and adolescents. This literature review aims to provide information on the material, Lego®s, an overview of its benefits and fields of using Lego® interventions, knowledge of •developmental stages of children and adolescents, and appropriate application of Lego®in school-aged children. It was hypothesized that effective Lego® interventions would increase a child's participation and encourage interest in art therapy by completing an integrative literature review methodology. The integrative literature review analyzed the outcomes of Lego® interventions in art therapy and related fields. Lego®-based art therapy with a developmental approach can be a resource for creating a school-based art therapy program. Appropriate interventions considering children's developmental status can lead to their emotional growin and social improvement as competent members of the community.
