With this book in hand and a handful of basic bricks from their LEGO collections, the only other thing that LEGO fans will need is a little imagination.

The world's largest collection of books, toys and movies for smart, confident, and courageous girls.The book includes 33 special Lego elements that combine with the most common bricks from your collection to make your machines go. We selected these elements for their mechanicals flexibility, utility, and general awesomeness and then got the work building the best LEGO (R) vehicles, launchers, noise-makers, gadgets, and games around. LEGO® Chain Reactions is packed full of ideas, instructions and inspiration for 10 LEGO machines that spin, swing, pivot, roll, lift and drop. Once they had it fully constructed, they took turns launching rolled-up balls of paper, some of the leftover Lego pieces, and even their Star Wars action figures. But with my supervision, my 4- and 7-year-olds were both able to play with the kit and have a blast.

It was a gift, so I have not seen it in use, but my impression was that I would like to sit down and try out the ideas. It would be nice to have a small plastic box or something like a pencil bag included to hold all the special pieces and clearly identify them as part of the chain reaction building pieces.With a handful of basic bricks from your LEGO collection, the only thing you’ll need is a little imagination. With this in mind, our team of experts, educators, and 11-year-olds helped us invent 10 machines that swing, bounce, spring…and teach kids the skills (and the physics behind the fun) they need to create their own marvelous machines. LEGO Chain Reactions is packed full of ideas, instructions, and inspiration for 10 LEGO machines that spin, swing, pivot, roll, lift, and drop!
