Create with Lego City

Lego City is all about creating a city complete with police, citizens and cars and even construction machinery and crew. Offering awesome sets to keep the kids (and maybe even the hubby) busy, these Legos allow kids to build and play in a world created by them.

Offering a range of sets and awesome packs, some of the sets you can find under this category include:

If you have a little creator in your home, the Lego Creator range might just be the perfect match. Featuring everything from the Subset Street Bike to more complicated creations like the Lighthouse Point, you are sure to find the right blocks for your builder.

What is great about the Creator range is their ‘3-in-1’ approach to Lego blocks and sets. Instead of being able to create only one thing – like a car – most of these sets allow for three different configurations.

Some cool sets that stand out in this range include:

The Lego Creator Expert range offers more advanced models such as the Sydney Opera House, consisting of over 2 980 blocks, and the Ferrari F40, consisting of over 1 150 pieces.

Get technical with Lego Technic
