Lego book

When I was a kid, I loved Legos and my parents bought thousands of them for my sister,brother and myself over years of time. We had bins and bins of all types and sizes and could make anything with them. Nowadays when you buy legos they come in boxes with a specific model to assemble inside. It stumps the imagination of the children of today. It's taken a few years for my boys(7 yr old twins)to gather a substantial stash of legos (a few hundred if not over their 1st thousand count). However they still tend to get stuck on the models. The book is helping them to expand their imagination.I'm very pleased with it.

Fun book!

I bought this book for my 8 year old son. He has tons of Legos but has difficulty coming up with new creations. This book gave him lots of new things to build. It is easy to read and understand. The only down side of this book is that some of the patterns require some very obscure pieces that we don't have. Luckily we have a Lego store not far, so we're off today to see if we can find some of the pieces.

Building Lego Figures

Tons of fun for the Lego builder in your house. Great for using that pile of Legos in the kids room.

Good for adult fans of Lego too!

Even though it's short, this book has some great ideas to springboard from. Enjoy a collection of the sort of figures that Lego puts in their Legoland theme parks, with full details on how to make them yourself. Several of them are also articulated. This one's well worth the price.

Really Keeps Him Busy!

My 4yr old Grandson really loves finding "people" he wants to make and at least trying to do it himself. I am so glad Someone thought of doing this (making models) as I do not have the skill to do it. It is fun for us to see the different things we can make, and then be able to do it!
