LEGO® KIDSFEST is coming to Pittsburgh in June more sites scheduled too

My boys get LEGO® Club Magazine. They received a postcard in the mail about LEGO® KIDSFEST coming to Pittburgh in June. I ready myself for the "Mommy can we go PLLLEEAASSEE!" Predictably I hear those very words. My boys are big LEGO fans. In fact at Christmas my 7 year old's list was basically a LEGO wishlist.

My thought was, "What is there to do at LEGO® KIDSFEST?" As I found out, the answer is, plenty.

--Explore the LEGO Model Gallery where there will be 40 life size models made up completely of LEGO bricks.

--LEGO master builders (yea the guys who get paid to play with LEGOs) will be sharing tips, tricks, and giving live demonstrations

--Help build a piece of a giant mystery mural to help reveal the image

--build your own LEGO car and race it down a ramp.  Race against friends and family

--Play LEGO board games in the LEGO games arena

--Build whatever you like in the LEGO Construction Zone

--Don't worry the littlest LEGO fans aren't left out (thank goodness for my soon to be 2 yr old) there's a "LEGO DUPLO Jams" area for toddlers to explore and build all while listening to fun playroom tunes.




LEGO® KIDSFEST will cover over 175,000 sq feet of fun.  LEGO® KIDSFEST usually sells out so it's best to get your tickets soon.  Adult tickets are $20 and kids are $18.  Kids under 2 years old are free.
