Lego Land Discovery Center

The majority of our second day of vacation was spent at the Lego Land Discovery Center in Grapevine Mills Mall.  It was amazing, and fun was had by all ages!  I'll let the pictures do the talking...

This little guy was at the entrance.

This was the entrance into the gift shop...much damage was done in there! : )

The next few pics were taken in the MiniLand section...this was probably most impressive to the adults as they have recreated the downtowns and big attractions of the DFW area.  A cool attraction for the kids here was that parts of it were interactive...they could press buttons to move pieces on the displays.

Downtown Dallas

DFW Airport

Great Wolf Lodge

Cowboy Stadium...kids could move the players on the field.

Gavin is standing in front of the Fort Worth Stockyards.  He was making a cowboy ride a bucking bronco.

Rangers Ballpark

In the center of all the exhibits is a huge playscape.  I couldn't get a picture 

of the whole thing, but here are a couple of the boys in action.

    

One of the favorite parts for the older boys was a section where you can build your own cars and race them.  They spent quite a bit of time working on their vehicles and racing them down the tracks.

We had to take a break for lunch...they were afraid they'd lose some of their car parts so they came to the table with us! : )

The little kid section was really cute, too.  You can't tell from this picture, 

but there's a barn they climb into and then slide down here to get out of it.

 And, there are trees and safari animals surrounding it.

And, big Duplo blocks to build with.  Gavin enjoyed building "towers" and knocking them down.

There are literally legos everywhere...this was a table of buckets that lined the wall.  Every bucket was full of legos for the kids to build with.

            They were even in the water...this "water craft" was made of legos and swam around in the fish tank.

Lego Land was something new for everyone and definitely a highlight of the trip!  I would recommend it for anyone with kids...and if you have girls, there is also a sweet Princess Parlor that none of our boys were interested in!
