I don’t know about you, but my 5 year old son is OBSESSED with anything LEGO®! I can’t keep him in Legos to save my life! As soon as we buy one expensive kit he’s through it and ready to move on to the next! No joke, I know for a fact that he received over $225 worth of LEGO® products for Christmas and that was even with us shopping the super intense holiday deals and using Ebates (for cash back rebates), etc. Thankfully the bigger kits came from Grandmas & Grandpas! Anyhoo…my point is that it is very expensive to keep up with this hobby. However, it is not a hobby that I want to squash due to budget constraints. It is a constructive use of his time, is truly the only time he can actually focus on a task, is great bonding for us as a family and with the big push toward STEM friendly activities I want to keep this going.
So how can I do this without going broke in the process? A new service called PLEY, which is much like “Rent the Runway” or “Bag Borrow and Steal” but for LEGO®! You can literally rent LEGO® kits!!! Your first kit is FREE, the kits are sanitized, shipping is FREE both ways and…it’s not the end of the world if you misplace a piece or two! Or 10 grams worth of pieces for that matter…they won’t charge you! All of this for a low monthly fee! Go ahead & check them out, but make sure to send us photos of your fabulous creations! Happy Building!!
