Tickets Giveaway for LEGOLAND Discovery Centre, Manchester – Ends 15th November

One of the places I have always wanted to go to in Manchester would be the Trafford Shopping Centre. Β It is one of those places that just seems to have the ability to draw people toward it. Β  It is perhaps the reputation that goes before it. Β Maybe it also has something to do with Old Trafford and the football stadium that draws us in as my boys are huge Man U fans (don’t ask me why, almost all the kids up here are).

Whatever there is to do, and there is a lot – I think I would have to have a pocket full of money before I headed down from Aberdeen again. Β I spent a week there in 2003 for work, and I always vowed to go back, but sadly I haven’t made it down again yet.

There seems to be plenty of things to do in Manchester, and if my children were to have a say in where we go and what we do, then they would definitely decide to visit theΒ LEGOLAND Discovery Centre as they are lego maniacs.

Halloween ManchesterΒ style seems to be overwhelmingly colourful at the LEGOLAND Discovery Centre, where they are holding a monster mash LEGO building challenge every day between the 15th and the 31st October.

  1. Great for boys… and girls who like building… The rides are not really much to get excited about. The 4D Movie was well made for a Lego film. My kids spent most of their time playing with… Legos. Eat somewhere else. The tables seem to be filled with bored parents waiting for their kids to get bored. So if you don’t want to eat standing up, eat before or after. I visited legoland trafford Centre during school holidays and it was very busy with a big queue so i would recommend purchasing tickets in advance.

  30. I remember when opening a new box of Lego there was usually only a small amount of window panes and as the only thing i was any good at making was houses I would be prepared to actually get into a fully fledged fistfight to make sure i got as many of them as i possibly could lol.

  34. As a child, making endless dogs out of lego because my houses never worked properly and ended up lopsided.

    As an adult, watching the hubby play lego with our nephew, and seeing them make a whole town (a crazy town at that) with it.

    …My contribution still ended up lopsided.

  35. I had a lego arm removed from my ear when I was little and my mum kept it in a plastic tube for ages, I wonder if she still has it (I obviously have a weird mother) also not sure how it got in there
