This dried flower LEGO set makes the perfect Thanksgiving centerpiece
Some kids help their parents set the table or mash the potatoes. And SOME kids build the centerpiece from scratch. And it’s sort of…super cute. The $49.99 Lego store dried flower centerpiece has retro vibes and an angular pattern that is sure to be the talk of the dinner table.
But before you get stressed at the idea of having your kids build (and drop) all 812 pieces in the days leading up to the holiday while you are frantically cleaning and cooking, consider making it a family affair — even visitors can pitch in and have something to do other than gripe about politics at family gatherings.
One brilliant parent jokes, “Thanksgiving day project for teens — no phones until they work together,” nodding to the fact that the “toy” is recommended for ages 18 and up due to its complexity, but may unite the family all the same.
One parent responded, “Dang!! Wow, that’s so pretty. All of a sudden I love Legos. I used to hate them as a kid.” Another gave a heads up that it might not be able to replace your big centerpiece on a large dining table: “It’s way too small for a dining centerpiece! We made it! Good for a small table!”
If you are in the DIY holiday mood, but Legos just aren’t in your wheelhouse, you can get your kids involved with other Thanksgiving projects, or skip it all together and get ready for the December holidays early.
