Are your kids going crazy for the new LEGO movie? It’s easy to see why the latest computer-animated comedy has received so much attention. LEGOs have been popular toys for decades, and the franchise continues to churn out new LEGOs to inspire us year after year. Now that there’s a new movie about our all-time favorite toy, those of us at AllFreeKidsCrafts are just too excited to share some crafty LEGO ideas!

I won’t spoil anything for you about the movie, but I will say this: The LEGO Movie is hilariously charming, and it’s fun for both children and adults (an absolute necessity in animated films). Plus, with big name actors (Will Ferrel as the LEGO villain and Morgan Freeman as the wise old LEGO wizard? We love it.) and LEGO-ified superheroes combined with a touching message, there’s just so much to love. And if you already love LEGOs, you simply can’t miss this movie!
