Welcome to our second year of Lego Quest for Homeschoolers!  For any new members, you can read HERE for some basic info about our group. Our first challenge for the 2014-15 school year is . . . Wearable Lego. Create something that you can wear. Please keep in mind that if you model your creation your photo (you included) will be posted to this blog. As always, I'm super excited to see where this challenge takes your creativity.

Our server is fixed

We had some server issues this last spring which delayed the posting of our quest #8 results. It has been fixed for sometime now but I think I was carried away with summer and forgot to post them. My apologies! I will attempt to get them up this week! Thank you!

Quest #7 - Spring

"Spring is the transition period between winter and summer. It is seen as a time of growth, renewal and new life for both plants and animals. The axis of the Earth is increasing its tilt towards the sun, which warms the Earth and causes new plant growth. What does spring mean to you? Create something out of LEGO that reminds you of spring and tell me about it. Here are the wonderful spring inspired creations kids from around the world made for this challenge." -Lego Quest 

I'll just add that Spring also reminds us of Easter and the new creations that we are in Jesus Christ, our Lord.  We welcome any Lego creations along this theme as well.

Submissions due to legoquestforhomeschoolers@gmail.com by April 18, 2014.

In Minnesota it's currently 13 degrees with a healthy layer of snow on the ground. I'm hoping that by mid April the snow will be melted and we'll be close to packing away the winter gear! Our family will just be a couple weeks away from the end of our school year by then. Anticipation!
