Awesome LEGO Creations with Bricks You Already Have: 50 New Robots, Dragons, Race Cars, Planes, Wild Animals and Other Exciting Projects to Build Imaginative Worlds

Bought this for my 10-year-old Lego-obsessed grandson. Super hit. I love how it uses Legos that everyone already has to make new and really cool things. The pictures are detailed, as are the instructions. There are a bunch of patterns. Makes for hours of new fun with the old Legos - yay!

So many Lego books show only the finished creations. This book provides step-by-step instructions. Just as nice, the book includes simple as well as slightly more challenging designs so it will last kids a long time. My 4-year-old grandson and his dad had a lot of fun sitting on the floor with a bucket full of Lego blocks, building the things pictured.

Very hard to reproduce without ordering other pieces. I have collected for 60 years and became discouraged

If you are looking for a good lego building book for beginners this is a great book to start with.My Grandson who's 3 will sit and build for hours with his Grandpa. The challenge for us is finding more things to build, other than the directions booklets that come with the lego kits.We bought a couple of boxes of the lego pieces for him to create, but did not have any building ideas or directions.This book has nice color photos of the finished product as well as the directions.You sometimes will not get a step by step, piece by piece photo instruction, but you can clearly see and determine what piece you need.One the first day of making things from this book, my Grandson was figuring out how to build a rocketship and dinosaur all by himself. Pretty impressive.Glad I read the reviews of some of the other books as well as this book and decided to buy this one.192 pages with great ideas and color photos.I purchased this item full price and my opinions are my own. I was not compensated in anyway for my thoughts.I rely on product reviews just like others to help make my purchase decisions so I try each product very carefully before reviewing and always do my best to leave honest opinions and provide as much facts as possible based solely on my experience.

This book arrived yesterday and we LOVE it! My son was building last night and before school this morning.What we like about this book:It includes a description of the different brick types at the beginning of the book in a way that an 8 year old can understand.It includes different categories of ideas from simple little cars to houses, castles, robots, and even vehicles that move using rubber bands.It also includes a list of required bricks for each item and some general building directions, but not step-by-step instructions, so my son can use the directions and pictures as a guide, but can customize in his own way.My son has other Lego inspiration books that have lots of cool pictures to spur the imagination, but don't include parts lists. This has been an issue for him because he loves the ideas and tries to build them, but can't always figure out which special pieces really make the idea come together.This book gives him the list of parts and gets him on his way with some basic pictures.Last night he built a TV with a gaming console on the shelf below it and a couch with a man holding a remote. This morning before school he built a little go kart and started finding the bricks to build the veterinarian's building.We have thousands of Legos and will be looking for other books like this one.

Great book and easy enough to follow my 4 yr old can use it himself!

My child didn’t have much trouble following the instructions, but he was frustrated that several builds require pieces that are not found in standard Lego sets. It does have cool ideas though, so we may try to order some of the unusual pieces.

WE LOVE THIS BOOK! It inspires so much creativity. My son (5.5) and neighbor boy (10) both adore this book equally and for the very same reason: it inspired them to think outside the box and make LEGO creations they wouldn’t have thought of on their own. DO THEY HAVE ALL THE SAME PIECES AS IN THE BOOK? No! But that’s what we love. This book is an amazing guide and helps them see the potential in the bricks they do have. My son builds “candy machines & dispensers” all the time now because he was inspired by the one shown in this book. He followed the directions, substituted with what he had, thought creatively, problem solved, and builds amazing dispensers that he is so proud of. THIS BOOK INSPIRES!! If you have a child looking to go beyond the instruction manuals that came with their LEGO kits, this is the book for you. THIS IS A BOOK FOR KIDS WHO CAN PROBLEM SOLVE. This book build problem solving skills, critical thinking skills, spatial awareness skills, not to mention creativity, imagatination and STEM. I cannot recommend this book enough.

Livro interativo. Ótimo para crianças que amam Lego aprenderem a montar novas formas e desenvolver junto a lingua inglesa. As crianças amaram!

I ordered a whole bunch of these, there are many titles in the series. Gave them as gifts according to which kids like to build what. The kids were very excited to read through the books and shouting out "Look, I can make this! Look, I can make that!" Appreciated by parents whose kids play with a Lego set once and then never again.

Just right for Lego fanatics who have plenty of their own bricks etc but need some help in designing and building

Well received gift.

Es lo que dice: ideas chulas, con piezas no muy extrañas (ej. nosotros no tenemos sus "articulaciones" pero con alguna reutilizada de las mininaves starwars hemos podido hacer algo similar), lo más difícil bastante explicado, otros sin explicar, pero no de un grado de dificultad (como en otros libros) que imposibilite hacerlo. Yo lo conocí porque vi en internet su "dispensador de lacasitos" y me enamoré. Tiene montones de ideas geniales para hacer un futbolín, un ajedrez, una pista de canicas o unas peonzas que giran que es una pasada, o un juego de tablero de peleas ninja (por enumerar solo las más originales). Luego hay avioncitos, animalitos majos, cochecitos, algunos robots muy chulos, un tractor y un par de dragones preciosos como el de la portada. A mi hijo de 5 años y a mí nos ha gustado mucho y me gustó verle en el sillón sumergido en su "lectura" y a continuación se puso a "inventar algo". Aunque la edad recomendable para que los niños puedan hacerlo solos sería algo mayor. Los textos (en ingles) además tienen bastante sentido del humor.
