Creative Colorful Bricks (11045) is a 820-piece Classic set designed to give children ages 5 and up a wide-open building experience centered around a vibrant collection of 2x2 and 2x4 bricks in a rainbow of colors. Step-by-step instructions guide builders through 14 models including a racing car, cat, peacocks, watermelon, roller skate, and penguin, while additional digital instructions unlock three larger builds: a dragon, a guitar, and a butterfly. The included models serve as a launching point rather than a finish line, encouraging kids to customize, combine, and invent their own creations once their confidence grows. The set pairs with the LEGO Builder app, which offers 3D rotating instructions and progress tracking to support younger builders working through the more complex designs. At $49.99, it makes a strong gift pick for young children being introduced to LEGO building for the first time or expanding an existing brick collection.
