Welcome to the fun-filled world of extra large building blocks! If you’ve just brought home these giant, colorful big building blocks, you might be thinking, “Where do we start?” Whether your child is a first-time builder or ready to conquer the living room, these easy and exciting projects are the perfect way to kick off your Biggo Blocks adventure. Think of it like LEGO on a grand scale—with even more creative possibilities!
Project 1: The Classic Tower
Skill Level: Absolute Beginner
Let’s start simple: build a tower! Stacking big building blocks might seem basic, but for a young builder, it’s like creating their first skyscraper. The goal is to stack as many blocks as possible without them toppling over. The best part? There’s no wrong way to do it. Encourage your child to go as high as they can—soon, you’ll have a towering masterpiece. Pro tip: Use different colored building blocks to create patterns or stripes for an extra artistic touch!
Project 2: The Blocky Bridge
Skill Level: Beginner
Next, let’s build a bridge. This project introduces basic engineering in the sneakiest, most fun way. Start by making two stacks of extra large building blocks a short distance apart, then connect them with a flat block to form a bridge. This is a great way to teach balance and stability. Once your child masters the basics, challenge them to build a bridge strong enough to hold a toy car or two.
Project 3: The Cozy Fort
Skill Level: Intermediate Beginner
Time to take things up a notch—literally! Building a fort is always a hit. Kids love forts because they can create their own little world inside. Start by constructing four walls in a square or rectangular shape, leaving an opening for a “door.” Then, add a “roof” by laying big building blocks across the top. Don’t worry about perfection—this is all about creativity. The end result? A cozy hideout where your child can let their imagination run wild, whether it’s a castle or a secret base.
Project 4: The Rolling Train
Skill Level: Advanced Beginner
Let’s add some movement to the mix with a rolling train! Start with a flat block as the base, then attach wheels underneath. Now, stack extra large building blocks on top to create the “engine” and “cars” of the train. Get creative with colors—rainbow trains are a blast! Once the train is built, your child can roll it around and imagine all sorts of adventures as it travels to new destinations. Toot toot!
Project 5: The Animal Kingdom
Skill Level: Expert Beginner
This one’s for the budding zoologist in your family. Let’s build some animals! With extra large building blocks, the possibilities are endless. Begin with something simple like a snake or caterpillar—just a line of blocks will do. Then, try creating more complex creatures like a blocky dog, cat, or even a dinosaur! Let your child choose which animals to make and help them bring their creations to life. Remember, it doesn’t need to be perfect—the fun is in the building and imagining.
