What: National Lego Day
When: January 28
Attention all Lego fans! And I think anyone born after 1962 ARE fans!
As we celebrate the yearly holiday of National Lego Day, the year 2022 was extra-special as we celebrated the 90th birthday of LEGO. Lego was invented in Denmark in 1932 and this fascinating building toy as we know it today was introduced to the United States in 1962. Most of you enjoyed playing and building with Legos as children. Many of you have continued your interest into adulthood. Or, if you won't admit to your grown-up self that you still love playing with Legos, you can easily hide your 'fandom' by 'helping' your children and/or grandchildren build their latest set.
The writers on Review This! have written reviews of many Lego sets, from small ones to very large ones. In case you have missed any, I give you this compilation to check out many of the favorites which are on the market today.
