WHAT’S YOUR FONDEST LEGO® MEMORY?
The first LEGO® set you built. Your friend’s face when you gifted them their favorite set for Christmas. Stomping barefoot on a pile of bricks (ouch!). How LEGO® got you out of bed during a depression. The memory of your child building something out of random bricks for the first time.
EVERYONE HAS THEIR LEGO® STORY, WAITING TO BE TOLD
It all started with a few of us sharing our LEGO® stories. We realized we all have different experiences, but one thing in common, a connection through LEGO®. We created 100 LEGO® stories because we know there are others out there like us.
OUR AIM IS TO SOURCE 100 LEGO® STORIES FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD
A story can simply be a picture of your favorite set. A LEGO® memory with a loved one. A drawing. A handwritten letter. A podcast. A video. There is no right or wrong. A LEGO® story can be anything and come from anywhere. Want to get involved? Submit your story and follow us on Facebook!
