Build a LEGO Friends Piano
Earlier this month, our LEGO store had a LEGO Friends building event. While it was on our anniversary, we took the girl to build the LEGO Friends Piano. Cheaper than a babysitter… I mean, it’s not like we were going anywhere special or anything… Originally, I thought the two builds (piano and drum set) would
Response From LEGO Regarding Mini Build Concerns

A Letter to LEGO Regarding Mini Builds
