Build Together on the go!

Build Together on the go!

Forever rushing about? Feel like there’s no time for playtime? Find five ways LEGO® Builder allows for creative fun, every day!

Life on the go can be challenging, particularly when looking after high-energy youngsters! With a million things to do, and a million places to be, it can feel like there just aren’t enough hours in the day. In fact, you may think that sometimes playtime is simply out of the question. But does it have to be that way?

Playtime is hugely important for kids, aiding their social and emotional development, and helping them learn valuable life skills. In fact, incorporating even just a small amount of play into their day can be hugely beneficial for our little ones. That’s why we’ve designed the LEGO® Builder app and Build Together to allow for easy, accessible, creative fun – anytime, anywhere!

So, let’s get going! Discover how LEGO Builder is the perfect play companion when on the go – and which LEGO sets are the best choices when out and about…

Make waiting time playtime!

Our busiest days often involve lots of waiting around. And it can be very frustrating, can’t it?

How many times have you been to the doctors, dentist, hairdressers (we could go on!) and found yourselves just sat there, with time ticking away? All too many, we imagine – and keeping restless kids entertained is no easy task!

So, why not use these times as opportunities for creative play with LEGO Builder? All you need is a LEGO set and mobile device, and you’re all set to turn waiting time into playtime!

Waiting rooms can be dull, boring places – not just for children, but for adults, too! So join forces using Build Together, and tuck into an exciting adventure set, such as Dilophosaurus Ambush (76958)! Consisting of three separate models, and only 211 pieces, it’s the perfect build for short periods. And nothing livens up a place quite like a roaring dinosaur!

Build out and about!

As parents and caregivers, there’ll be times where your prime goal is to get the kids out of the house, particularly during the school holidays. Perhaps they’ve been cooped up inside too long finishing their homework, or maybe the weather is just far too nice to stay indoors!

LEGO Builder has been designed so that you can truly enjoy playtime together, wherever you are. And, in fact, time spent outside the home can make for great building opportunities! So, whether you’re off to the park, spending an afternoon at the seaside, or just heading to a coffee shop, tuck into some family fun with LEGO Builder and Build Together.

Want to enhance your little one’s playtime while out and about? Pick a set that will get them into the spirit of things! For a summer trip to the beach, or an afternoon in the park, Ice-Cream Shop (60363) makes for the perfect build. Who doesn't love a cool, sweet treat on a warm afternoon?!

Build on the move!

We know all too well how stressful and time-consuming travel can be, particularly when youngsters are involved. You’re trying to get from A to B, but one of your kids is wailing about a lost sock and the other is convinced they’re hungry despite just finishing a massive meal. Oh, and somehow – someone’s sticky fingers have ended up in your hair. AAAH!

But it’s okay, just take a deep breath, because we have some good news for you – LEGO Builder makes for the perfect travel buddy to transform this chaos into calm…

Whether on a train journey, road trip or flight, LEGO Builder is a great way to keep young travelers occupied and entertained. With the app’s clear, easy-to-follow instructions, and colorful 3D images, children will have no trouble building their LEGO sets, even when on the move.

Build Together can turn your LEGO set into a fun, family travel activity. Train or flight delayed? Never mind, everyone get to building!

Of course, when traveling, smaller sets are for sure the best choice. Why not stay on theme with a LEGO vehicle model, such as the Pagani Utopia (76915)? Or create a sense of adventure with the Emergency Rescue Helicopter (60405)?!

Ready, set… go!

School, sports practice, music lessons… kids’ schedules can be back-to-back, too! And, of course, not every occasion allows for play – building LEGO bricks during a piano lesson probably won’t go down too well! So, how can your child enjoy playtime during chock-a-block days?

A great way is to create a speedy LEGO Builder challenge by giving them a fixed amount of time to build a LEGO set. How many bricks can they fix together using LEGO Builder? You could even make it a daily challenge, recording how much of their model they manage to make each time. If they finish their model, set a timer and see if they can build it faster each day!

One of our smaller sets, such as the Exotic Parrot (31136), would work wonderfully for a race-against-the clock game. This colorful kit also features three animals in one – a parrot, fish and frog – allowing for multiple challenges and endless fun!

Build big… really big!

We appreciate that some families are on the go a lot, and fitting in any playtime at all can be a struggle. And when things are hectic, incorporating play into daily activities may be too big a push. But that doesn’t mean creative fun has to go out of the window…

When finding time for play feels near impossible, it can feel like you’re in an endless mission of balancing tasks. But what if we turned that boring mission into a fun one? Enter our larger LEGO sets – the ultimate projects for kids to embark on at their own pace. Their mission: Build for 5-10 minutes every day. With the convenience of LEGO Builder, they can see how much progress they make by the end of the week. Simply set up a dedicated space – perhaps in the corner of their bedroom – and let the mission begin!

For a seriously big build, why not go for the Megapolis City 5th Anniversary (80054)? With 2,330 pieces, this vibrant set is perfect for a youngster’s ongoing building project. And when the mission is complete, it’ll certainly have the wow factor!

We’re big believers that kids should enjoy creative fun, every day! So, the next time you’re on the go, or just snowed under, we hope these five LEGO Builder tips will help you find time for playtime!
