Quest #14 - Heart or Hearts

Hey builders, this month you get to build a heart or a structure made of hearts!

You could stack your hearts into a tower, line them up, build a bridge with them, wear them, etc. There are some ideas here at Little Bins for Little Hands or a quick search on Pinterest yields lots of results.

" Love is patient, love is kind.  It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.  It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.  Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.  It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres."
I Corinthians 13:4-7

Quest #13 - 2 Cups of Random Bricks

"Take a measuring cup and fill it with 2 cups of random LEGO bricks. Please, no choosing pieces, just scoop them out. What you get, is what you get.

Create anything you like out of this amount of bricks. The idea is, everyone will have the same volume of pieces to work with.

Can you create a design that is representational? Can you make it look like something?

With this random selection of bricks, try to create something. Do it a few times. Choose your favourite construction.

Did the design come to you before you started building or did the object appeared before your eyes as you were working?

Here you can see what other kids from around the world made for this challenge." Please submit your photos to: legoquestforhomeschoolers@gmail.com by Friday, January 23rd, 2014.
