Our family went to see an incredible display of our Nation’s landmarks at the LEGO® Americana Roadshow at the Kenwood Towne Center in Cincinnati.
We LOVE to admire the creativity on display by LEGO Master builders. We’ve enjoyed LEGO Kidsfest and LEGOland in Orlando in the past and always welcome any new opportunity to see a display.
If you look really closely, you will see the a mini statue of Abraham Lincoln inside in the image above.
Here are a few tips for when you visit the display.
1. Grab a map to locate all of the displays
2. Take a few moments to observe all of the detail
I love all the playfulness in the “Brickscapes.” My boys enjoyed finding a variety of characters in the display.
3. Read the stats
4. Enjoy the play area
5. Show off your creativity in the display case

As a teacher, I would love to have a picture of each Washington monument you built and the information Lego attached to each display. My class and the rest of the students in my school would learn and enjoy seeing a bulletin board with the pictures and the information.
