Since the boys are huge fans of the LegoLand Discovery Center at home, we of course had to check out the one in Schaumburg. Ashley came along and we tried to go as soon as they opened.

They had a whole room dedicated to Star Wars! Brendan found an instant buddy.
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The brand new $800 set of the latest Millenium Falcon was on display. It is HUGE.
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Better angle for scale
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Life-size Darth Vader
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Our play area is a Lego City police\/fire\/construction site. Theirs is a big pirate ship! Trevor collected all of the “gold” bricks from the whole play area and built himself a vault of his treasure. Arrrrr!
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

There is a water play area where you can build and float Lego pirate ships.
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

There is the same build-a-car area. We built a S.W.A.T. transport truck.
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Brendan and Ashley checked out the “sandbox” area where you could build on the sand castle. Trevor was concerned about leaving behind our creation to get destroyed.
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We parked it in the castle
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Brendan found another favorite character. But the build on the head and hair were so off.. I think we will call him Emmutt.
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The jungle room was pretty nicely made.
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Of course, there has to be the local “Miniland”.
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Brendan wishes we had a layout like this in our house.
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

That’s no moon…
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We enjoyed a little more than an hour of playtime before the school buses arrived in droves. The place filled up with at least 7 schools worth of classes. It got insane. We could hardly stay together. So we had to bail. It is a shame, we could have played for so much longer.<\/p>\n

Hot tub every day!
