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.

It just so happens that today is my birthday! :)

We have checked this book out from the library several times. It would be great to own it! :) My daughter's favorite thing to do with legos is to dress and combine and re-combine her mini-figs. What can I say, she's a girl. ;) Once she gets them all how she wants them, then she builds the settings they need for whatever adventure they are going on during that story.

Thanks for the chance to win!
