LEGO South America

Here's Sam's LEGO version of a map of South America. He used a different color for each country, and added minifig heads to show the capital cities of each country.

My LEGO House MOC

Here are some cool photos of a LEGO house, submitted by Cody. We especially like the red sports car in the garage, the arched doorways upstairs, and the garage door that opens and closes (controlled by a worm gear). Very cool, Cody!

LEGO Club from May 6, 2010

Our theme for this week's LEGO Club was "LEGO Endor" from Star Wars. A couple of the kids weren't familiar with Star Wars, so they built their own projects instead. Here are our cool creations!

Earth Day at our LEGO Club

Here are a few photos from our LEGO Club from Thursday, April 22nd (Earth Day). The theme was "Making our world a better place". Here are our creations:

The Observatory
Discovering new things about the space around us to help us discover new ways to help the Earth around us.


The Back Yard
The way it helps the Earth is having lots of trees and plants to take in carbon dioxide and produce oxygen for us to breathe.


Disneyland Playground
Kids love Disneyland. That's why I made Disneyland, because it helps kids know that Disneyland is fun!
