Are you a fully-cooked adult but still have a soft spot in your heart for toys like Legos or K'Nex? My husband grew up to be an architect, and he largely attributes his successful career to Legos and K'nex. It all started in the playroom when he hired his two little sisters as workers (they didn't apply for this job, by the way), and barked at them to gather certain shaped blocks or specific colors for a particular project.

Big kids like my husband are filled with glee every time they visit the LEGO Discovery Center in Boston.

What is the LEGO Discovery Center in Boston all about?

It’s the home of LEGO play, where you and your family can create your own adventures in their ultimate indoor LEGO playground! There are over two million bricks in there! From interactive MINIWORLD and masterclasses with our Master Model Builders, to a 4D Cinema – your imagination will run wild.
