LEGO RESOURCES
In this final journey into the Lego universe, I will introduce you to five resources that will enhance your building experience. Whether you like to get together with others to build or stay home and work solo, there's something here for everyone. However, given the social restrictions that have kept most of the world in self-isolation for a good portion of 2020, readers are encouraged to use their judgement before attending group activities. There is also the possibility that events mentioned in this article may be postponed or canceled, so readers are encouraged to seek up-to-date information. And remember, you can always be social at home by joining us at the Games Magazine Enthusiasts group on Facebook (www.facebook.com/groups/gamesmag)!
BOOKS
For Evan, my six-year-old, a box of assorted Lego elements is full of potential. Using only a few bricks, he can create something clever and unexpected—while I, on the other hand, stare feebly into a tub of Lego and wonder what happened to the creative brain I had as a child. For future dotards like me, the Lego Group offers a diverse selection of books to get the creative juices flowing.
One of my favorite books by the Lego Group is Animal Atlas, published in 2018 by Penguin Random House. This book teaches the reader how to make increasingly complex animals using a variety of common elements. I learned how to make this delightful little flamingo using just the 34 pieces shown.
