Fun LEGO Challenges

I wanted to develop a few unique ideas for our printable LEGO challenges calendar to add to some classic LEGO building challenges. If you take a closer look, I have tried to add an extra element wherever possible, such as attaching a marker to a car for drawing. This takes a classic Build a Car LEGO challenge and adds a cool new twist.

30 Days of LEGO building fun!

We have made a few other printable LEGO challenges, including our LEGO Math Challenge Cards and our LEGO Travel Kit and Challenge Cards.

Get the LEGO challenge calendar for great activities to keep the kids busy after school, on camp, during school vacation, or when they are stuck inside!

Although these LEGO challenge ideas provide a bit of structure, there is tons of room for creativity, imagination, and design for your kids. It makes a great boredom buster for screen-free fun!

If you want to learn more about building your LEGO collection on the inexpensive side or more about organizing your LEGO, we can help with that too!

LEGO Challenges

We try not to use many fancy pieces if at all, so anyone can have a go at these LEGO ideas at home.

Discovering how to use the LEGO pieces you already have to make something cool is a great skill for kids to learn early on. You don’t always need more of something. Instead, you need to use your imagination and work with what you already have!

Click the links below for inspiration or directions to build some of our coolest LEGO challenges. Remember, our pictures are just a guide to get you started with the pieces you have available.
