Simple LEGO challenges like this LEGO rainbow challenge have been great fun for my five year old son. He’s just learning about LEGO and all the cool things you can build with them, but he is hesitant to build his own crazy concoctions. I thought a few challenges would help him get some practice trying out new things! We have made a cool zip line, marble maze game, rubber band car, and a volcano to name a few.

FUN! LEGO Rainbow Building Challenge

All you need is a great set of simple LEGO bricks and maybe a base plate! We have this 10x10 blue base plate which made a great sky and a great package of starter Lego bricks. All you need is basic bricks in as many bright colors as you can find. I came up with two LEGO rainbow challenge ideas for the whole family. Daddy loves Legos too!

The first LEGO rainbow challenge you see below. I made a rainbow with clouds. His task was to recreate the rainbow! He needed to study my Lego rainbow to make his. He used visual skills, building skills, math skills, fine motor skills, and more. Then we had fun creating all sorts of rainbows with the pieces we had left. Pretty simple and fun to invent small Lego rainbows.

There are so many amazing benefits associated with LEGO play. Building with LEGO is one of the best early childhood learning tools you can use. We have used our bricks in dozens of ways that don’t require specialty pieces or a huge collection. Check out all our cool LEGO learning and play ideas for more activities.
