LEGO has kicked off a new tradition they are starting called LEGO Build Day. If it continues, it’ll happen on December 26 and basically it is just building whatever you like. LEGO would like you to share your creations online using the hashtag #LEGOBuildDay and your build may be shared by LEGO’s social media team. Although you can build whatever you want, LEGO is more likely to share your builds if they are original ideas.

Happy LEGO Build Day! Today is all about celebrating your awesome creations! Share your builds using #LEGOBuildDay and we may feature them for LEGO fans around the world to see! pic.twitter.com/PYalM9wfqP

Merry Christmas from us here at The Brick Fan! We hope you got all the LEGO you wanted on your list. This year has been pretty difficult for everyone but hopefully you get to enjoy today with your loved ones.

I’ll be running a giveaway some time later today for something that has been fairly difficult to get for people. If you followed me on social media the past few days, you may already know what it is. In the meantime, relax with the sounds of a LEGO Yule Log below.
