10 Best Gifts for LEGO Lovers
Tuesday, November 12, 2013 at 5:00AM
A Christmas gift of LEGO bricks is guaranteed to be a hit.
Over my years of parenting a LEGO lover I've discovered several products that make great gifts.
Hopefully this can be a guide as you shop for your favorite LEGO lover!
Stick around until the end, because I have a GREAT giveaway for you!

1. LEGO Organizers
My son loves his LEGO bricks. For my own sanity I've had to convince him that organizing your bricks can be FUN!
Several storage systems are available. I'll list my three favorites here:
- 6 Case Workstation and Storage Organizer
- 3 Drawer Sorting System OR LEGO Friends 3 Drawer Sorting System
- Minifig Storage Case (this is great for in the car or anywhere on the go!)
- LEGO 4 piece Toy Organizer Tote
2. LEGO Architecture Sets
Learning with LEGO Architecture is wonderful! Any of these sets will keep your LEGO lover learning and challenged for quite some time!
3. LEGO Books
My son learned to read with the leveled reader books, many of them with LEGO themes. He also enjoys the character encyclopedias and other big books. I've listed a few of our favorites here:
4. The LEGO Calendar
This is the greatest gift ever! Last year my son would build this calendar the minute he got out of bed on the first day of each month. Awesome!
5. Anything LEGO® Education
I have written many reviews on different LEGO® Education products. I believe anything from LEGO® Education is a wonderful investment in your child's education. Please visit my LEGO Learning page to learn more.
6. LEGO Candy Blocks
These are a great stocking stuffer! I also use them to do LEGO candy math during our homeschool, and also has "motivation" during the day.
They even stack just like the plastic bricks!
7. LEGO Movies
My son LOVES many of the LEGO movies. I like them because they are short and entertaining. There are many, but these are the ones we have watched and are our favorites:
- The Adventures of Clutch Powers
- Jericho: The Promise Fulfilled
- LEGO Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Out
8. Time Telling and Watches
My son has one of the watches and he went through a period where it was never off of his wrist. I've also seen some new (to me) time telling products, which look great for the younger set!
- Time Telling Set for Boys --- Time Telling Set for Girls
- LEGO Kids Classic Minifigure Link Watch
- LEGO Friends Watch
9. PLEYGO Subscription
Pleygo is a new service. It's like the Netflix of LEGO.
We are happily trying out a membership and it's working great. Grant has 10 sets in his queue. One set is mailed to him - he plays with it until he is done, then mails the set back and another is sent.
It's a brilliant idea, really. You can try it out for free if you don't want to take my word for it.
This would be a GREAT Christmas gift for your LEGO lover!
10. LEGO Shoes
Yes, LEGO Shoes! My son had some LEGO tennis shoes that were literally worn OUT.
- LEGO Crocs (oh, how I wish I had a little one to fit into these!)
- LEGO Rain Boots (seriously cute!)
There you have it - my 10 favorite gifts for LEGO lovers.
Maybe I've just simpliifed Christmas for you? A little?

I'm not sure there's anything Lego that my son has gotten that hasn't been a favorite. His most recent favorite is a Lego Chima set that he received. He builds them so quickly!
I couldn't begin to figure out what his favorite Lego gift has been, probably whatever is the newest! He is definitely Lego-obsessed!

My son's fav Lego gift was a trip to legoland! :) while there he was able to exchange the Lego mini figures with Lego employees and ended up with some cool ones! I haven't seen the calendar before,I am def looking into that. Thanks
