Lego Party!
My friend Melissa, at The Joys of Home Educating, has a Lego link up each week. I have to admit, my children aren't huge Lego players. We have a few sets, and they play if I haul them out and get them interested. I mentioned the Lego linky today and Miss B said, "We should do that!". So, when we got home from our field trip this morning she sat down on the deck to build. GMan is building as I type, but he wasn't really on board with his sister's idea, so perhaps he'll come up with something on his own. The dynamic duo wasn't quite hitting it off today, imagine that! :-0
While we were at it we researched Lego creations on the internet. For fun, check out the Top 10 Strange Lego Creations! Very cool!
Thanks Melissa, for encouraging children to play with their Legos!!
Miss B. with her house (I think these are pieces from a Lego beach house set):
The barbeque area:
The flower garden:
We've been listening to Charlotte's Web in the car for the past week. Here are some E.B. White inspired Lego creations by GMan. On the left is Templeton and on the right is Charlotte (notice the eight legs). I love the way a child's mind works.
Hop over to Melissa's site and see more Lego creations!

Looks great! We were at Toys R Us this past weekend and I was trying to get my duaghter to show some interest in Legos. No go, but I was surprised at how much some of these sets cost. Think I need to check out WalMart or Target if we get any.
Great Lego Creations!
Thanks also for the SOTW links!
TOO CUTE I love the flower garden. Thanks so much for linking up and the cool facts link! Did you know they used to be called Binding Blocks when they were 1st made!
These are great :) Miss B's creation looks very much like the kind of things my daughters build with their Legos.
Legos are so fun! I loved them as a kid, and my kids love them, too.
I love how kids think, too! That flower garden is adorable. It is really interesting to see what is going on in their minds by seeing what they decide to make.
This was my kids' first time to participate and they both made automobiles. I hope to see them get even more creative because when they play it seems like that's all they usually make. I won't push them. I just want them to have fun with it.
