Spring Break 2012 - part 2

As most of you know, Little Man is a Star Wars fanatic as well as a big fan of LEGOS. Imagine how excited we were to find a Lego Star Wars Club meeting close to our town. So Saturday morning we made the 2 hour drive so that LM could join the club at the Lego Store and build with other boys his age.

Upon arrival they were given a special Lego Star Wars Club T-shirt with an X-Wing fighter on it. (Star Wars ship) The boys had the store all to themselves for an hour before it was opened for regular business hours so LM felt pretty cool. :D

The kids were split up into small groups and each given a cupful of random Lego bricks and asked to build a Droid (Star Wars robot type thing). Then they had to present their droid to the other groups and explain how they built it and the special features of their droid. At the end, they received a mini set of Star Wars Legos.

Let the building begin!

There were adults dressed up in Star Wars costumes so the kids could get their picture taken with them. I was VERY impressed with the whole event and LM said he wants to do it again sometime. :)
