It is World Book Day on 4th March, and I thought I share some activities and ideas you can do with your LEGO that day (or any other day)

What is World Book Day

World Book Day is an annual celebration of books and reading, who’s mission is to promote reading for pleasure, and create a love of books in children and young people, which will last for the rest of their lives.
