After dinner on Saturday evening the kids disappeared rather than demanding to watch recordings of 'Outnumbered'. I have now lost count of the number of people who think that Meg is just like Karen, but more worrying to us is just how like Ben Joseph is... Anyway, I went in search of the aforementioned mischief only to discover this:
The two big boys had spent hours building a Superhero School with speciality classrooms, staff room, Principal's Office and even a janitor! I love the attention to details like the water cooler in the back of one of the classrooms!
In other parts of the room there were Ninjago dojos set up and there was some Harry Potter Lego action going on, but a small mishap (aka Robert) had occurred resulting in the Burrow looking as if it had been on the receiving end of an attack by Voldemort himself!
In related news, a lovely mum from school sent me a message during the week to ask if I would be prepared to make another Ninjago head cake for her wee boy's 6th birthday party. I umm-ed and ahh-ed then said OK. Here he is.
I loved lego as a kids, and now my girls love it too. They even have some of my husbands childhood lego to mix with all the new stuff. Love the schoolroom that yours built, what creative minds!
ReplyDeleteThat is just fantastic Sandra, what clever, imaginative little boys you have. A wonderful result of Lego, it is such a great invention. I can remember building elaborate masterpieces as a child and it would keep me occupied for hours. Awesome photos... and you are a lovely lady to bake that fab cake for a friend :o) xo
ReplyDeleteI offered them bribes over the holidays to rebuild all the various Star Wars ships they've been given over the years, but they always prefer to do their own thing.
DeleteObviously I AM a lovely lady, but I did charge for the cake!
I love it! My youngest was off school ill one day last week and we spent the entire morning building with lego. We were particularly pleased with our tree house. Long may the love of lego continue!
ReplyDeleteWell, this was the work of my 13 year old and he shows no signs of tiring of it! Best invention for kids!
DeleteThis so brings back memories of when my 3 boys were little and lego fiends! Fortunately my sister left having her kids til much later so I now have 3 little nephews and the lego love is starting all over again! x
ReplyDeleteWow isn't that fantastic! I love the lego school. I will have to show my wee guy now so he can have a go at one. Hope you're having a lovely week hon.
ReplyDeleteWe've only just introduced lego into the mix. My boys are absolutely loving it too. They'd go mad for your cake. It's amazing!
ReplyDeleteWow, that Lego looks like hours and hours of fun! (and piece and quiet!)
