The little building blocks have acquired a devoted following the world over, from both kids and adults.
Here’s how you do that.
There are three notable options at the time of writing.
It’s available on Windows and Mac.
The interface supports most of the tools that BrickLink Studio does, albeit without some of the fine control.
The interface is impressively quick, even when handling complex or transparent parts.
LEGO Digital Designer
LEGO makes its own design software, though it was unfortunately discontinued in 2018.
The interface, in particular, is much more kid-friendly.

Boxed LEGO sets aren’t the only way to buy LEGO pieces.
Enter third party marketplaces, of whichBrickLinkis the most robust.
But that’s not the best bang for your buck.

The LEGO Store is usually found in malls or in other dedicated shopping areas of major cities.
The nearest one to me isRogue Brick in Fort Worth, Texas.
(Incidentally: these shops never actually have the trademarked term “LEGO” in their name.)
Meetup.com and Facebook’s Group pages are popular options.
Meeting regularly with fellow LEGO fans can be a great way to meet people and share your experiences.
These groups are often called the local LEGO User Group (LUG).
