Children of all ages will delight in this opportunity to experiment with travel LEGO®-style. This special exhibit at the Children's Museum explores the creation of vehicles with LEGO® bricks. Imagine where you need to go, what vehicle you need to take you there and create it! In addition to building your own masterpiece, view the work of LEGO® Master Builders. Some of their creations on display include the driving of the Golden Spike in the Transcontinental Railroad, the building of the first Model T, the Wright Brothers flight at Kitty Hawk, and a cruise liner. Children can also have their photo taken behind the wheel of a kid-size race car created entirely out of LEGO® DUPLO® bricks.
Age-appropriate build tables featuring parts and pieces from popular LEGO® sets such as the LEGO® City, LEGO® Creator, LEGO® Friends, and LEGO® DUPLO® lines are available in the exhibit for children to create their own vehicles. Admission to this exhibit is included in regular museum ticket prices.
