Our Favorite LEGO Birthday Present

 

There is one LEGO resource that is used over and over in our home.

Whenever my son is invited to a birthday party for a child his age, I always ask if the child has this one LEGO treasure. 

It just so happens that one of my son's friends turned 9 this past weekend.

Our present choice was EASY. The child likes LEGOS.

 *This post contains affiliate links. 

This present provides hours upon hours of creative inspiration for any LEGO lover.

It is a springboard for so many great projects, and my son is always excited to share it with his friends.

In fact, I've blogged before about how this book inspires creativity in my son. 

 

The LEGO Ideas Book provides thousands of building ideas. 

Some are simple, and some are complex. There's something for everyone.

 

Each page is laid out to teach, inspire, and delight. 

{And for less than $20, this is an affordable present, too.}

Wrap the book, and then print a cute LEGO card to attach. Let your child personalize it on the inside, and you're ready for the birthday party.

And I guarantee you, the birthday child will ENJOY this gift! 

As a DK Blogger, I am happy to be able to give away one copy of the LEGO Ideas Book this week!  Please follow the Rafflecopter widget below to enter. 

While you're at it, check out all of the wonderful DK books that you can use in your homeschool. We love them, and I'm going to be happily share many with you this year! 


 *Also be sure to stop by my LEGO Learning page for free printables, reviews, and other goodies.

My kids love Legos! They have a dear friend who has this book and at every visit to his house, they will spend the first hour creating from this book.

We keep checking this book out from the library and love LEGOS!!!!

August 14, 2013 | Unregistered CommenterHeather

My kids like to build a lot of different items from robots to buildings. I'm sure the book would give them a lot more ideas!

August 14, 2013 | Unregistered CommenterKimberly R

My son will build pretty much anything! Boats, cars, spaceships, pyramids, buildings, you name it. He would LOVE this book! : )

August 14, 2013 | Unregistered CommenterSelena Hunt

My children's favorite things to build are buildings (castles, houses, caves, etc), transportation (boats, cars, planes, etc), and minfigs. Then, they'll get all their creations together and make up some wildly fantastic stories. We've had this book on our wish list for a long time.

August 14, 2013 | Unregistered CommenterBrandy

Anything and everything but especially Lego City kits and vehicles. We get this book at the library frequently but have never purchased. His birthday is in 3 weeks and would be the perfect gift!

August 14, 2013 | Unregistered CommenterTammy

My kids love to play creatively! They love to create cities and inhabitants with their LEGOs. The cities range from Heartlake to a planet from Star Wars to a city completely inhabited by cute little robots:)

August 14, 2013 | Unregistered CommenterJen S

My kids have a hard time with just free-building. They love to get the kits and put them together, following the directions. But, then they are careful not to let them break apart. I bought them a big box of bricks and they just will not sit down and try to come up with their own creations. This book would be great for them!

We Love Legos! This Book Looks Great. I Love The Gift Idea Too.

I have four boys, so I kind of NEED this! Thanks for the chance c:

August 14, 2013 | Unregistered CommenterSuzanne

My son loves to build ANYTHING with Lego! Currently he favors Star Wars but you never know what we'll get when those little gears start turning!

August 14, 2013 | Unregistered CommenterKelly W.

My son would love this book! Christmas is coming!
