The Legoland Discovery Center is more of an indoor playground and quite scaled down compared to a full-fledged “Legoland” that we went to in Nagoya. But it was still great fun for the Lil One and my wife and I as well. It’s got enough fun things to do and definitely lots of Lego / Duplo blocks for children to exercise their creativity.
We were there around late morning — again after a slow start to the day as had been our MO for our holidays. Starting off the visit was a virtual reality ride. As the ride is for two and missus didn’t fancy getting dizzy from motion sickness, it was me accompanying our little girl for the ride. The set up was kind of like two race car seats fixed to a mechanical device that tilts you in tandem with what you are seeing on your VR goggles.
Thankful to say, the lil one and I both had fun and did not regurgitate our breakfast. After that, the visit was a guided tour through several rooms showing visitors how Lego blocks are made — including interactive games such as building your own Lego mini figure.
We hadn’t taken any photos except at the room with Lego sculptures of city scenes in Shanghai. Below are some of the photos.
The main event of the visit was free play with a collection of Lego blocks impossible for anyone but the biggest Lego fanatics. Our little girl definitely had great fun while missus and me became two little kids again playing — it’s rather normal for me as I am the designated proxy sibling….
All in a very nice relaxing outing for our little family. That’s it for this post, signing off here. Thanks for reading.
