In a time when children are born knowing how to use a tablet, find a gift or plan for the Children’s Day That I manage to separate them from the screens seems like an impossible mission. However, sometimes the answer is in returning to the classics that never fail and that invite you to use your hands and imagination.
This year, the LEGO Group We were surprised with a double proposal that we love: a free interactive event in Mexico City and a line of construction sets that are a resounding “yes” to give away this April 30. Here we tell you everything you need to know.
A weekend plan: Discover the LEGO® Play House in Polanco
If you are looking for a different activity to celebrate with the little ones, write this down in your agenda. Starting today, April 1, and until May 3, 2026, opens its doors the LEGO Play House.
located in Carlos Dickens 18, in the heart of Polanco, This immersive house is designed for children to let their creativity fly by touching, building and playing in real life. What we like the most is that it is divided into areas designed for different personalities:
- The corner of fantasy and animals: If your children love stories or pets, they cannot miss the “Pet Nursery” and the “Fantasy Unicorn Room”. It is a safe space where they can assemble their own animals.
- For the crazy ones for the speed: If they are the engines, the “Car Assembly Workshop” and the “ROOM HIGHWAYS” They will become your favorite place to assemble and run your cars from Bricks.
Our Gift Guide: The Lego Sets That Are Worth Every Peso
If you don’t live in CDMX or prefer to celebrate at home, giving away a set of blocks is always an investment in the development of your children (help fine motor skills, patience and problem solving).
For this Children’s Day, our star recommendation is the sets LEGO® Creator 3 in 1. The reason? Buying a single box, the children have the instructions and pieces to put together three different figures. It is literally giving three toys in one.
Here we leave you our selection of favorites for this season, divided by ages and interests:
For creatives and animal lovers
- Magical Unicorn (31140): A set beauty that can be armed like a unicorn, disarmed and turned into a seahorse, or transformed into a peacock.
- Wild Fauna: Pink Flamingo (31170): A super colorful set that transports you to the tropics. Ideal to put together a flamingo and then transform it into two other exotic species.
- Cute hamster with flower (31376): A tender and very fun option for the little ones who have always wanted a pet.
