I have the most amazing dad! I looked all over for a Lego table for my kids, but couldn't find anything that matched my needs. I wanted something taller because my kids are super tall, I wanted a bigger and flat workspace, and I wanted buckets that could hold the legos. I reached out to my dad and told him about my dilemma and he said he would make one for my kids for Christmas. It turned out perfect and is exactly what I invisioned. The best part is the buckets are flush with the table top, so the kids can just push the legos in to clean up and then the buckets lift out for dumping the legos out. I'm so grateful for my dad and amazed at how talented he is. Now to find some matching chairs!

Very pretty - and when they grow out of Legos you can use the table for other things.

Jennifer, that is such a great idea. They are such expensive little toys. I can't imagine how much more they will cost when my kids have kids. Saving them now will really help. My middle son can spend hours building things with Lego's. It is definitely his thing.

Vanessa, that is why my dad built it the way he did. As a place to do homework or crafts when they get older. They have already played board games on it.

April, that's what makes it even more special. I bet your oldest enjoyed his table as well.

They have already spent so many hours using it. My oldest has actually started using it to build with his erector set. I am so happy its a safe place for all their small pieces away from the baby and a perfect learning space for them to be creative.

Truly beautiful and a work of art. The kids will enjoy it for years---and then before you know their kids will be using it. LOL---but really a family treasure to cherish.
