LEGO House invites fans from all over the world to participate in an online Christmas celebration - an informal and fun 60 minutes experience on Friday 11 December.

Might be fun to build the 8x8 one anyway and have our own mini competition. The winner gets ... a gold star from google images πŸ˜‰

My daughter becomes a teenager that day so I won’t be joining either. Hopefully lock down will be over and we can go celebrate

"I was thinking how describe in my story
the best Lego Christmas childhood memory.

It was many years ago,
I remember like it happened only a week ago.

It was snowing outside
and we were waiting for gifts to arrive.

This time Santa was a little late,
my sister and I could not wait.

While our parents were busy in the kitchen
we tried to find anything hidden.

When our mom call us to help with the food,
Santa went inside like Robin Hood.

He left a big red sack next to the tree
and inside we found many Lego, yippee!

We found boxes with Town, Pirates and Castle sets,
also my sister she got Fubuland pets.

I remeber that Christmas till today
and I wish to that feast day again."
