The holidays are right around the corner! For weeks the kids enjoy their free time. Or well… A few days. And then boredom sets in. Especially if you are not (yet) going on holiday. Do yours already suck like a stone? Then get the Lego bricks. Because there is absolutely no reason to be bored, as long as you have enough building material. And with this cool overview full of Lego inspirational ideas, they no longer have to wonder what to make next.

Lego remains extremely popular with young and old. This was proved by the popularity of the television program Lego Masters that was recently on the tube. Did the Lego jitters start to occur to you too? Then it's a good thing it's vacation, because that way you can spend a lot of time on your own Lego masterpiece. And to immediately give you a nice idea about what kind of Lego construction should be made, we have made an overview full of challenging, creative and sometimes quite time-consuming constructions for you. So no problem to get started during your staycation!
You can of course buy Lego in many places. Here you will find a lot of Lego.
Are your kids really not getting enough of all that building? Or are mom and dad secretly just a little bit addicted to it? Then sit down and have a good time together. And above all, make sure you have enough building material… Go for the Lego Challenge, and make not one, but all buildings from the Lego inspiration overview. If everyone contributes, it should work!
When boredom strikes, children often lack inspiration. And then it's up to mom or dad to provide them with a fresh dose of motivation, this also applies to building with Lego. no worries; The structures below will undoubtedly make them want to get to the bottom of things themselves!
We have to say that we did not make those gems ourselves. Every Lego idea comes from Pinterest so all credits go to their creative makers!
It remains perhaps the most made Lego building:houses. Do your children also love to build a world with Lego bricks and their own inspiration? Then building a house from Lego is always a good idea. Build your own house, from the inside or the outside (or both)… Or make a tree house, also fun!
Building a house may be fun for steadfast types… But what if you prefer to be on the road? Explore the world, via land, sea or air? Then you need a good vehicle! And of course you build it all yourself. No idea how to start on this Lego construction, then you will find some inspiration here!
This sturdy four-wheeler will take you everywhere you need to go, just like the Lego Friends tour bus by the way. But off-road is no problem for this boy, so there is no bridge too far.
Do your little rascals need to let go a little more creatively now that the holidays are over? Then let them design their own car. Who knows how far it would take them. In any case, a long way into their fantasy world!
The best helmsmen are ashore, but if you have real sea legs it is of course also a great idea to make a Lego boat with this inspiration. You can buy a complete building set for that, but it's just as much fun to go for your own design! And besides, mom or dad will probably want to help with the construction. Build on the fun right away!
If you can't choose between all possible means of transport… Just go big and make them all! Then you exchange Dad's train system in the attic for the structure below. Just make sure you have enough baseplates to create a whole world full of boats, buses, cars and trains. House-building enthusiasts can also make themselves useful in this project! Really cool, isn't it.
Houses and trees are nice, vehicles too… But what is a world without animals? And they should not be missing in the world of Lego either. On Pinterest you will find a lot of building inspiration to make the most beautiful Lego creatures. Lego eagles for example
Do you also want to get started? Here you will find a lot of Lego.
Make your own pet, or go completely crazy and make your own fantasy animal. If you prefer a really big project, you can of course make an entire zoo out of Lego.
Also a fun but above all a challenging idea:make a photo as detailed as possible with Lego bricks.
A painting is of course also possible, as in the (sublime) example above. Maybe a little too ambitious for your mini-me... But it's nice to try your hand at Lego with this inspiration! Don't forget that you can also copy a photo or painting in 3D. That is just as much fun and perhaps a little less challenging than a flat Van Gogh.
Okay, child's play is over. Time for a literal climax! And one where you have to use your brain a bit. We are going to build the highest possible tower of Lego bricks. Watch out, because before you know it you're actually playing a game of Jenga instead of Lego and…
In case you like a challenge, above is the record holder from the Guinness Book of Records. Hope you have a lot of Lego in stock if you want to beat this champion!
This Lego idea is of course immediately ideal for kids (and parents) who like a challenge. We challenge you:who will build the very highest block tower?
Anyone who has seen the Lego Masters program knows that this can provide very exciting images. Who can make the longest Lego bridge?
Building a high tower is already a lot… But with such a bridge you have to take gravity into account very much. How do you ensure the strongest possible construction? To take an example from the real Lego Masters:the winning bridge could carry no less than 160 kilos… Will you all help clear up all the stones afterwards?
Here you will find a lot of Lego.
