Delaware Fun-A-Days 26 and 27: Prolific Building

Too busy building to post, the last few days of our project had many friends visiting and many awesome creations appearing.

The first is a woodland scene with a stormtrooper on the hunt for a tiny meal. I love the careful placement of the predator and his prey and how alive these woods are.

The wackiest build of the month may be the Mad Max-inspired Chicken Smasher.

I picked up the helmet piece and said, “This would make a great grill on a battle wagon.” My son and his friend went to work, adding water effects and a chicken wedge from an old McDonald’s promotion.

Children get crazier as they work through their familiar builds and find confidence and freedom in their own creativity. Frankly, I’m not sure what’s happening at this robbery. The police are already there (with a Pegasus-emblazoned shield, no less), the thief is wielding a laser sword, and a man is idly strumming his acoustic guitar in the midst of the chaos.

It’s everything a Lego scene should be.

God bless and thank you for reading,
