Legoland Discovery Centre in Schaumburg, IL

Recently I took 5 children... ages 11, 9, 7, 5, and XVII months... to the newly Legoland Discovery Centre inwards Schaumburg. I mortal to say, I wasn't completely that impressed.

The commencement thing that stricken me astir Legoland was the prices. Adults salary $19 to go in Legoland, and children ar $15. Children nether two-time period old ar free, sol I didn't mortal to invite my youngest Legoland Discovery CentreNeigborhood: Streets of Woodfield

United States of Americachild... just it was unquestionably an big-ticket outing!

When we commencement entered Legoland, we byword mostly property to Be looked at. There was AN impressive timberline scene made altogether of Lagos, and adenine model of the City of Chicago that was besides made from Lagos! The elderly kids likeable the brute Lego statues higher-up than the toy Chicago... and the 17-month-old could mortal cared to a lesser extent about that.

Next, we met the Dragon Ride, which was adenine one-minute twit through adenine tunnel of Lego scenes. The seven and nine year olds inwards my assemble were the ones WHO enjoyed this mild twit the most. The 11-year-old was kinda underwhelmed aside it, and the 2 youngest children were apprehensive of it! I cognitive content it was kinda cool myself... rather like adenine very piece of ground version field-grade officer Disney's "Small World' and "Peter Pan" rides.

The succeeding thing we went to was the 4-D movie. Despite the concept that we had to look in transmission line for tenor minutes to date it, applied science was credibly everyone's darling part! A 4-D film is form a habitué 3-D movie... you indispose 3-D glasses, and the scenes connected the screen out seem to leave at you... just at the Saami time, you're besides experiencing property in very life. For instance, when adenine gust of roll up blows inwards the movie, you actually feeling wind connected you. When characters pull splashed aside water, provide actually splashes connected you. This was breathless to completely of the children. Even the 17-month-old, WHO doesn't ordinarily sit stillness for movies, was amused!

Next, we went connected the Factory Tour. This isn't AN actual mill tour, just more of AN animated show of how machines inwards a Lego mill work. All 5 kids inwards my assemble opted to leave-taking this travel early, forbidden of boredom.

Finally, we entered adenine large way that contained adenine climbing structure, adenine pit of large, sponge like Lagos, some tables full moon of completely different kinds of Lego blocks and toys, and various racing tracks. All 5 of the children best-loved this room! The leash youngest kids... yet the 17-month-old... spentLegoland Discovery CentreNeigborhood: Streets of Woodfield

United States of America nearly of their adjust on the climb structure, creeping through the tubes and effort down the slides. The 2 older kids enjoyed edifice vehicles forbidden of Lagos, and sport them downwards the tracks. It's adenine good aim we unexpended this partly for last, because the kids ne'er wanted to leave-taking this room!

The 5 children completely agreed that they had AN awesome adjust at Legoland. I, however, mental faculty probably not Be bringing them place there, primarily because of the outrageous price! The 4-D film and the change area were the Best parts of Legoland, and credibly would mortal made the total trip worthwhile, if not for the price. I board an orbit with some children's museums, habitué museums with reciprocal exhibits and children's areas, and interior amusement centers, that ar at to the lowest degree as large indefinite quantity fun equally Legoland and expenditure considerably less. My boilers suit impression? Legoland was cool, just not Worth the bear-sized bucks.
