Lego inspiration



A while ago we signed Sunnyboy up to The Lego Club and he was delighted when his first free Lego Club Magazine arrived in the post a couple of weeks ago. Sunnyboy currently makes several Lego models a day and after reading the Lego Club Magazine he made this model to enter into the Lego Club Building Challenge. It's a tracking device.







Lego and playmobil are some of Sunnyboy's favourite toys. He loves to try out the secondhand sets at the charity shop where we work,



and we often visit the toyshops in town to look at the new sets.



I have also been inspired by Lego recently and when I saw this DIY Lego Travel Box on Pinterest I thought it was such a great idea I decided to make one as a surprise for Sunnyboy. I made a Lego travel box and a Lego tray to go with it. Sunnyboy is really pleased with his new Lego travel set.



Here's the tutorial at finley & oliver.

  16. Great idea! When my bigger boys were younger, they were constantly wanting to bring Lego wherever we went and constantly losing valuable pieces... many tears were shed over missing hats and accessories! I am pinning this for the future when our littler boy (and girl) get bigger!
