Legos, Farms and an Educational Playdate!

One of my friends, who happens to be starting homeschooling her daughter this year, invited us to a Farm Party - with a Lego Duplo Theme.  Oh my she went over the top for this party/playdate! 













She had crafts set up for the kids.
She had the felt board out.
She read a story to them.
Kids had a ball - learning - playing - creating!

Love it!

Thanks to my gal pal, Kimberly for all the time and effort you put into the party for the kids!

FUN LEGO FACTS:

The LEGO minifigure represents the WORLDS" LARGEST POPULATION of people with over 4 Billion minifigures being produced in the last 30 years.  That is almost 12 times the population of the US!

There are 915 Million ways to combine 6 eight stud LEGO bricks!

The word LEGO is the contraction of two Danish words,

LEG GODT

which means Play Well!

There are over 2,500 different LEGO Star Wars minifigures!

If you built a column of about 40 million LEGO Bricks it would reach the MOON!



Be Blessed!

I'm teaching a LEGO class at our Co-op which starts in just a few weeks. Some of these facts will come in handy.

Looks like a fun playdate!

Awesome presentation! The little piggies look so cute! It's great that they could have so much fun and learn all at the same time (not to mention enjoy cupcakes, etc.). Thanks for sharing this at Gettin' Krafty!
