Lego Land is calling.....



Homeschoolers gathered at the public library for the long awaited Lego club. Lego building is a daily occurence at our house, creations adoring every corner. The thought of combining buckets (and buckets!) of new to you lego with the chance to build with all your friends was an instant hit. This is undoubtedly an event that will become a regular in our schedule.








The boat. Pirate ship to be exact was a huge hit.
It was nice to see the boat accesorizing become such a big group project. Everyone dug deep into buckets to find the crew, captain and few captured traitors. Soon a second ship joined the ranks to form a small fleet.









For Aria lego time is lots of fun- but having a fairly quiet room due to high concentration levels is even better because the opportunity for her to talk is great. She wondered around the room chatting it up with the occassional construction happening. She choose to wear her ever popular dress today, which she pretends is her kimono. Chinese New year and our talks of some Asian cultures is having a real impression on her.










Elias is digging deep into the buckets for the perfect piece. There was a chance to work with friends we knew and people we just met. The parents got a chance to mingle and chat while the kids were really engrossed in what they were doing... a coffee bar would have been my only suggestion!
