About a week ago Jack and I had a Lego build battle where we each had to build our own Lego ornament. He got the Snowman, and I got the Reindeer. Jack beat me, but only because I let him. At least that's what I tell myself. 😉 It really was fun to do together as we've now divulged into hours of YouTube watching and Roblox/Minecraft playing during the pandemic (#noshameaboutscreentime). This Lego Snowman and Reindeer Duo (Ornament) kit is perfect for a stay-at-home holiday.
I think it's cool that right now Lego is doing a Build to Give event. "Every Lego ornament made and shared by you using hashtag #BuildToGive helps [Lego] donate a Lego set to through our network of charity partners." So even if you don't have this set, grab whatever Lego bricks you have, turn them into an ornament, and share using #BuildToGive!
I'm keeping it simple on this review as end of year things are happening at my day job, end of year things are happening for Jack's school, and the holidays are here. I usually also review a few STEM toys this time of year and raffle them off, but it wasn't going to happen this year. So hopefully none of my readers are too disappointed that the annual toy review (for the holidays) didn't happen. I'll probably also take the next couple weeks off from the STEM Spark blog to focus on spending time with Jack, as it's his first elementary break-- he's very excited!
But there's some good news for my STEM Sparkers! I am going to raffle off a $20 Lego e-gift card. All you need is a valid email and be able to use a US Lego e-gift card. Follow the Rafflecopter below (or link here) to enter. Happy holidays and happy STEM-ing! See you in the New Year!
