LEGO KidsFest St Louis 2015

As an official USFG Blogger, I received complimentary tickets to LEGO KidsFest St Louis in exchange for an honest review of the event.

Last Friday the Hubs, the kids, and I jumped on the Metrolink and went downtown to the Convention Center to the LEGO KidsFest St Louis.  We’ve been to LegoLand Discover Center in Kansas City a couple of times, and the kids love it.  When I learned that the LEGO KidsFest, a giant traveling LEGO expo, would be coming to the America’s Center Convention Complex I knew we had to go.  It was to be the first time the traveling exhibit visited St. Louis and be right in our back yard!!  Um, tickets, please!

Our tickets were for the opening session on Friday evening.

As soon as the kids realized what we were doing, they were beyond excited.  We started off in the LEGO KidsFest Art Gallery, where they each spent some time creating a piece for the wall.  They were thrilled to hang their creations up (we stopped back by before we left, so we could see the artwork created by other KidsFest goers, too)!

From there, of course we had to visit the pile o’ bricks, where they dove into the fun and buried themselves… literally.

So, what else is there to see and do at LEGO KidsFest?

* LEGO Mindstorms: where you can play with programmed robots and snakes

* Construction Zone: where you can enjoy a creative build, play, and display area
* LEGO DUPLO: where you can explore imagination through building for the younger set
* LEGO Retail: where you can purchase LEGO merchandise and official KidsFest tour goods
* Big Brick Pile: where you can build and have fun in a gigantic pile full of LEGO bricks for creative play and enjoyment

* LEGO Friends: where you can build for the five empowered friends from Heartlake City

Activities at Lego KidsFest St Louis 2015

We all loved the life sized LEGO models that were throughout the show.

By far, my favorite activity, though, was the Master Builder Lab.  The Master Builder, Chris, that presented during our show was funny, knowledgeable, and engaging.  He kept the kids interest, answered questions, and his enthusiasm for all things LEGO was contagious.

The kids were hard pressed to pick a “favorite” thing about the LEGO KidsFest.  In fact, Mister said, “Simply put, that was awesome.”

We all hope LEGO KidsFest returns to St Louis next year.  I’m hoping the fact that the event sold out here will be in our favor!

    This is so cool! I have been working with my families with children on the Autism spectrum on imagination. They have a tough time getting creative with Legos so I have been trying to come up with some cool ways that they can encourage pretend play with the use of Legos and Duplos. I have got to see if they will be having a festival here in LA any time this year because so many of my families would benefit from it!

    It looks like so much fun, what a fab time your kids must have had. My kids sure love LEGO, so they would definitely have enjoyed this too.
