Thank you to BabyCenter for sponsoring this post. The honest opinions are my own.

I remember playing with LEGO® bricks as a kid. My sister and I would build for a few minutes here or there and we’d make up stories about the little people. I’m glad to see that Kora & Logan have inherited my love of LEGO® bricks. However, they have taken it to a whole new level.

Lego FunFor Kora’s birthday we took her to our local LEGO® store. It’s a bit of a drive so we hadn’t been there before and she was so excited! She picked out her own bricks and created 3 people.

Since the kids enjoy their bricks so much, I was thrilled to learn about The Official LEGO® Channel on YouTube.

Lego YoutubeIt’s a new channel and it already has over 500 videos with more being added daily. There are a variety of themes on the channel and some of our favorites from the LEGO® Club TV Shows theme includes:

  • Behind the Bricks – which takes them on a tour of the Master Builder Model Shop and the Model Building Plant in Prague as well as showing kids the creation of a Life Size Incredible Hulk, and more!
  • Brick Tips – which shows kids how to use the stop motion app
  • Cool Creations – which features amazing creations built by other kids
  • Sneak Peeks – of the upcoming Monster Fighters season.

Other themes on the channel include:

  • LEGO® Brand – featuring Happy Holiplay, How It All Started, World’s Largest Lemonade Stand, Bricks In Space, and much more.
  • Designer Videos – learn how a Designer makes a Super Soarer Jet, a Street Rebel Motorcycle, and watch Designers play with their creations.
  • Video Games – lots of video game trailers.
  • Board Games – a fun look at  board games like Creationary, Life of George, and Heroica
  • Fan Creations – video shorts created by fans
  • TV Spots – a collection of commercials
  • Mini Movies – featuring all the famous characters

I like that the channel is divided up into themes so that there is something for every child to enjoy.

I surprised them by showing the the channel and the playlist before they headed off to school this morning. They were so excited! I was glad I captured their reaction on video:

After watching for a couple of minutes Kora said, “This is amazing, Mom!”

The Official LEGO® Channel on YouTube is lots of fun and the playlists are such a wonderful feature that I know Kora & Logan will enjoy spending lots of time viewing the videos and using them to spark their imagination. I can’t wait to see what new creations they will now come up with!
