LEGO ® Videos

My three boys love LEGO Videos.  They love to make LEGO ®  videos and they love to watch LEGO ®  videos. {A great big LEGO ®  hug should be inserted here!} My boys are 7, 9 and 11.  Every allowance-earned cent goes to the LEGO ®  Store.  Each birthday and gift-giving holiday are filled with  LEGO ® wrapped boxes. Our playroom {and Lego tables} are filled with LEGO ®-built towns and countrysides.  Computer time for the boys usually centers around Lego.com.  Even family game night usually ends up with a round or three of Creationary. All these things were reasons why I was really excited to hear about  The Official LEGO ® Channel  on YouTube.

LEGO ® Videos

The Official LEGO ® Channel  was kid-tested in my house and approved.  In fact, I set up the boys’ iPads with the YouTube app and then created a  LEGO ® playlist using The Official  LEGO ® Channel which keeps only more  LEGO ® videos to be recommended. The boys love it.  They watched various videos for HOURS.  In fact, there are 500+ videos from which to choose.  That is probably more than mine need since they tend to watch their favorites over and over.

Set Up a  LEGO ® Video Playlist

To set up a playlist from The Official  LEGO ® Channel for your child:

1. Go to your YouTube account and create a “new playlist”.  I named mine  LEGO ® Channel so the boys would recognize which channel to watch.
2. Visit Youtube.com/LEGO and watch a video.
3. Click “video options”.
4. Select “Add to Playlist”.
5. Sign in using your YouTube login.
6. Add selected video to your new playlist.*

*To keep non-LEGO ® videos from being recommended in this playlist, simply build the list with ONLY Official  LEGO ® Channel videos.

Watching  LEGO ® Videos

Up until recently, I hadn’t loaded YouTube onto my kids’ iPads because I am not thrilled with the content of many of the videos there.  What I love about The Official  LEGO ® Channel playlist option is that I can set it up and let them “explore” within the channel knowing that they are only being exposed to videos that I am comfortable with them watching. They love it because they do have choice over what they view and because it is on their iPads, it is portable entertainment. Because it is all free, it is also a very allowance-friendly entertainment option!
