The LEGO Store050

Don't plan on zipping quickly in and out of The Lego Store, which features plenty of play tables and piles of LEGO blocks for inspired building, and giant LEGO sculptures, inside and out, that are sure to elicit lots of oohs and aahs.

Even if you are able to drag the kids from the hands-on activity area, they're sure to linger in the bright and cheery store, which is filled with a large selection of LEGO kits. A large demonstration area in the center of the store generally houses a massive work-in-progress.

And watch young eyes go wide at the first sight at the Pick-a-Brick wall, where LEGO fanatics can select individual bricks to make their own creations. The store supplies two sizes of plastic containers ($6.95 for the small cup, $12.95 for the large) that can be stuffed as full as possible - as long as the lid goes on.
