MN Children's Museum / Lego Castle Adventure fun
Sir Rodney:
We took a trip to the Minnesota Children's Museum yesterday to see the Lego Castle Adventure traveling exhibit. I highly recommend visiting this exhibit if it stops in your area and you have children (even if you don't!). Educational and fun, they cover the very basics of castle development as well as the proper terms for the various components. Of course, the kids can build castles using the awesome Lego pieces in the exhibit. They can also build a virtual castle wall using different properties from a menu then "fire" a catapult at it to see if they've made the correct building decisions. I was very impressed by the scale models of existing castles (Neuschwanstein, etc.) and the two full scale armours on display. I don't know who had more fun, the kids or I! :)
Sir Edward:
Very cool! I'll have to see if it comes around here.
Sir Wolf:
sir edward, dont you have buckets and buckets of unused legos? seems a cool project! could even find a childrens hospitol to donate them too hehehe
Sir Edward:
I have a lot, but not enough to make a full-size knight.
Still deciding what to do with them. Donate, sell, whatever. I could probably get several thousand for the collection if I ebay it.
Sir William:
In that case, the choice is easy- eBay it, then make a nice donation to a children's charity of your choice. Everyone's a winner then.
