Design a Christmas scene.
You may build a house decorated for the holiday, a wreath on a door, an evergreen tree, an airplane hanger with some special Christmas flare (for all you plane/rocket/space ship lovers - my kids included), a present, a part of the Christmas nativity, it's your build and your imagination!
I don't have any examples to show you from the original Lego Quest but if you need some inspiration here are a few and there are lots more on Pinterest or Google.

Quest #11 - A Loved Book
"This 'month's' challenge is to create something from 'a loved book'.
You can design anything you like from this book, like a character, an object, a scene, a design or even a feeling.
It can be directly inspired by the colourful pages of a picture book. Or it can come from deep in your imagination influenced by your favorite novel. What I would love to know, is the name of the book you are getting your inspiration from and the author who wrote it. And of course, what you are calling this creation and perhaps something about it that tells a little of the story in which it came.
Your creation might make others want to read the same book! Go for it, have fun, I can't wait to see what you come up with! Here are the cool book inspired creations that came in from around the world from kids like you!"
Submission photos are due to me via email (legoquestforhomeschoolers@gmail.com) on Friday, November 21st.
