Building Memories: Best Build Together Sets for Families

Discover our top choices for collaborative building and family bonding with LEGO® Build Together!

Imagine a family adventure where you don’t need to leave your living room! Welcome to the world of building together – not only a chance to help your children learn new skills, but also a wonderful way to spend quality time together and make special memories, too. Building as a team allows you to truly connect with one another through a shared, bonding experience – and have lots of fun in the process!

Our passion for collaborative building is the driving force behind Build Together – an innovative feature on the LEGO Builder app that allows you to quickly and easily complete LEGO models as a team! It’s like having a friendly guide that splits up the building mission, giving everyone their own special role. Before you know it, you’ve assembled your very own LEGO-building dream team!

There’s a huge range of LEGO sets supported by LEGO Builder – and when it comes to choosing the best build for your family, we recommend sets based on hobbies and passions you share together. This is a great way to enhance the bonding experience and elevate your creative play!

For outdoor explorer families!

Being out and about in nature is a wonderful way to spend time with your family – and it can be a truly fun, bonding experience! If you and your children love to explore the great outdoors, our top pick for you is the LEGO Adventure Camp Cozy Cabins (set 42624).

This exciting set brings all the fun of the outdoors indoors – perfect for wintertime when you can’t go camping as much. Here’s how the Woods family divided their winter building adventure:

Dad, the family’s official campfire master, took charge of constructing the fire!

Mom made the main cabins, carefully assembling the log walls and adding tiny details to make it feel just like their favorite campsite.

The twins, Ivy and Willow, had the most exciting jobs! Ivy assembled the bikes and trees, while Willow built the woodland animals and arranged the sleeping bags.

As they built together, they took turns telling scary stories – just like when they’re around the campfire… Gulp!

For adventurous families!

Are you and your kids all about action-packed fun? Perhaps you love the riveting rush of adventure sports! If so, we’d recommend the LEGO City Ski and Climbing Center (60366) for some family Build Together playtime!

Does this look like it might be the one for you? Then meet the Skiison family, who are huge fans of this super set…

Always up for an adventure, the Skiisson’s were counting down the days to their next winter holiday. To get their little boys into the snowy spirit, mum and dad – Iva Skiison and Ivan Skiison – decided they should all build the LEGO City Ski and Climbing Center (60366)!

Using Build Together, they teamed up to make the cool (literally!) ski slope, climbing wall, ice rink and more. The kids sipped on hot chocolate whilst building the cozy cafe – reminding them of their favorite holiday family time on the slopes. When they’d completed the LEGO model, they were more excited than ever for their holiday!

For families who adore their pets!

You don’t need us to tell you how animals can quickly become important members of a family. In fact, we’re sure many would agree that their household just wouldn’t be the same without their pet pal or four-legged friend. If this sounds like your family, the LEGO® Friends Pet Adoption Day (42615) may be the perfect set to build together…

This super-cute set features a bunch of adorable animals looking for a new home. Let's take a look at the Pooch family’s story to find out more…

Ms Pat A. Pooch and her daughter Kitty ADORE animals. Together they look after five pets – two dogs, a cat, a ferret and a guinea pig. Woah! They’d like even more animals, but a lack of time and space means this isn’t possible right now. Unless...

... there was another way they could bring even more animal fun into their home? The LEGO Friends Pet Adoption Day set (42615), of course!

Using Build Together, Kitty and her mom divided up the 400-piece challenge: Kitty took charge of the tiny animal figures, assembling the adorable pig, poodle, cat, hamster and hedgehog, imagining each animal’s personality. Meanwhile, her mom constructed the adoption center building. As they built, they swapped stories about their own pets’ antics, and special moments they’d shared together. Cute!

Building LEGO sets with your family is a fantastic way to enjoy quality time together, connect with each other, share moments and make special memories. And with LEGO Builder and Build Together, it’s now easier and more fun than ever! So, now over to you! What type of family would you say you are? What are your interests and hobbies? Which LEGO set is the perfect choice for you to build together, and what story will you create?
