We had a great time at the Columbus Legoland. We've also visited Chicago and the larger Orlando ones. I was really impressed with how clean and updated the Columbus one seemed. The staff was also awesome. Blake was helpful in maintaining the line and entertaining the kids while we waited for the cinema. His joy was infectious and he seemed to love his job. A woman was helping the minifigure walk around to meet the kids and noticed my kids were so excited; she made an effort to circle back even after he'd gone into the staff only area and I was so grateful. I wish I'd gotten her name because she went above and beyond. We had a pretzel with cheese and a drink while we were there. The food was fine, typical for this sort of place, but we needed a moment to reset since we stayed for about 3 hours. My kids loved both of the rides and we did them several times. We watched three of the movies and then my kids (8 and 4) enjoyed playing with Legos and the play area. I'm glad we were able to take advantage of a July 4th coupon but overall it was a great value and I would recommend a visit to anyone interested in Legos. read more

Do your kids like Legos (of any size)? Do you have some time to just chill inside and build? Well for some $$ you can start off in a room and see a film and then go into a ride to shoot lasers to help save the queen. Then you see some Lego villages that you can push some buttons to see it light up or move. Finally you get to areas to create with Legos of different sizes. They also have another ride and play area for taller children. They have a slide for 5 years old and under. There is a party room if you want them to host an event for you. All this is located in the mall so parking is limited to the parking garages. read more

We took our nieces on a Sunday afternoon and truly didn't know what to expect. Starts with a virtual tour of the Lego factory, includes a ride (theme was fun but no specific ties to rest of exhibit), Columbus in legos (cool for the adults - the girls were less invested), and then there were several areas to build legos, a ride, play ground and mini movie experience. Overall the girls had fun and it was well designed. The Lego building areas take patience and a lot of interest on the part of kids as it's just a bunch of random bricks in bins without great organizations. It's pricey but they often run deals that make it more worthwhile. We got the basic package which was perfect - they wanted to charge another $20 for 2 bad photos so generally would not find that add on necessary! read more

We did finally go in the back, because, well, Kid K wanted to. It's still pretty expensive, even relative to other local attractions like COSI, and doesn't offer quite as much to do. But, the kid loved it, and had fun for a couple of hours. And I survived, without too much stress. We went at lunchtime on a summer Friday, and it wasn't crowded. Plenty of kids in there, but not nutso. (We had tried to go the day before and the entrance, and Easton's hallways nearby, were packed with summer camp kids, so we went to a movie instead.) Staff were uniformly friendly, helpful, and patient. We interacted with half a dozen people, and I saw other customer interactions, and was impressed by all of them. Kids can build at multiple stations, watch "4D" movies, ride rides, and more. It's not huge, but there's enough to do that they can go back and forth and stay occupied for a bit. There are some pretty impressive builds on display (characters, Ohio cities, vehicles.) There is a special are for younger kids. We paid $30-some dollars apiece (no, kids aren't any cheaper, at least not elementary school age) for a mid-level package. Not just the basics, but not all the extras. We got "free" minifigs (you can exchange them downstairs if you aren't thrilled with what you got) and digital photos at several stations (like on the rides.) There's a little coffeeshop with drinks and snacks. It's a fun diversion, and if they're at all into Legos it's worth checking out. Of course they route you through the giftshop, and of course that stuff ain't cheap. I recommend Bricks and Minifigs for figures and loose parts. There were a few frustrating moments here- unclear instructions, etc.- but all in all she had fun and I wasn't very annoyed. read more

We had a really good time at LEGOLAND Discovery Center in Easton. If your kids are into LEGOs, this place is basically heaven. There are tons of different areas to build and play--everything from racing LEGO cars to giant play structures and endless bins of bricks to dig through. The Master Builder Workshops were a highlight. The staff does a great job walking kids through different building ideas, and mine came out excited to show off what they made. The only knock is the price. It adds up fast for a family, and I wish it was a little more affordable. Still, for a special outing, it's worth it. My kids left happy and tired, which is always the sign of a win. read more

LEGOLAND Discovery Center - Columbus - Amusement Parks Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

A little overpriced for what is available. There are two rides that are pretty basic but fun for the kids. Also a big hamster maze playset in the bottom floor that entertained the kids for a while along with a 4D movie that lasts 14 minutes. Our kids made it into a good day and spent a lot of time there. Maybe four hours but at 30-36 a person you could go to COSI instead and get your moneys worth. read more

We had the best experience here and it all started with Jamal at the front desk! He was so helpful and walked us through all of our options at Legoland discovery center and even told us about the ability to host a birthday party there as well. We didn't know what to expect walking in but that warm welcome readied us for the adventure ahead and we had a great time. Every employee should be like Jamal! This is a great spot to spend a few hours and our 15 month little one enjoyed every minute. The rides availability is dependent on height for some so some rides may be better suited for older children but we were still able to utilize most things even with her being so young . read more

We had an amazing time here today! My kids 5 and 10 were able to play for over 2 hours and we could have stayed longer! read more

We loved the LEGO Discovery center. My little one fell asleep (she's 4 months) so this definitely was a trip for adults. We really enjoyed the games and trying to out score each other on the blast game. We each got a mini fig and it was neat to be able to trade them with the staff. If you like Legos and are in the Columbus area I definitely recommend this activity center. read more

LEGOLAND Discovery Center - Columbus - Lego pit because we're adulty adults! - Amusement Parks Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

Came to this discovery center for my toddlers 4th bday weekend. This is a perfect place for those under 8 years old. It's small and easy to keep track of your family. It's stroller friendly and located inside the mall. Parking is a breeze in the garage. Lots of free activities to do once you get inside. My son loved the building your own cars and racing them down the ramp. Super clean and a lot of staff were present to assist. The toddler area with a small playhouse was well kept and had a soft surface like at many parks. It was a good place for my infant to play. Gift shop prices were about average with the general stores we shop at. They are cashless! Overall it's worth the cost of the tickets (check a local city guide for discount :)) If you're expecting a large amount of time in here and your kids are older than 8, you should pass. My toddler was good with 2.75 hours and still wanted to stay. We missed the cafe being open by a few hours. They had what looked like great deals on kids food and snacks. Much healthier than the food court. read more

Not one friendly employee in the entire place! Not hard to understand since there are so many rude people running rampant! 4 year old couldn't do anything without a bigger kid pushing him out of way! read more

Never actually been in the theater part since I'm an adult (though I am curious about it). The store part is pretty awesome, though I question why Easton thinks they need 2 of them. read more

Smooth super nice really for the age group so pay attention to that other then that amazing

I'm updating my last review. We did end up coming back because T-Mobile offered half-priced tickets. That is pretty much the only way I'd go back again. It's still super overpriced for what you get. My kids (9 & 6) had fun especially my 6 year old. They both enjoyed the rides. We went on a Sunday morning so it wasn't very busy, which made us be able to ride the rides a few times. The Lego Friends area is still really nice. My daughter liked that. She also loved the addition of getting to make a Lego Dot bracelet. The car area could be really great, but there are still never enough pieces to make a car that works. Also if you are going to have suggestions on what to build it would be good to spend the time putting the correct pieces back otherwise the suggestions are kinda pointless. My son also enjoyed the movie. Good place for younger kids, but my 9 year old was bored after about 90 minutes. Overall it's just expensive for what you get. You are essentially paying for the name. They could easily cut the regular price down by a lot and make it better for everyday people. read more

It was cute but it's for a very specific age group. Best for little ones below age 8. Seemed clean and was a cute experience but likely one and done for us. read more

Not a good experience. Pretty limited set of activities and what was there had a lot of out of orders (the first exhibit froze about 30 seconds in), when mentioned to staff, reaction was, that has been happening. Not much you can't do with some Legos at home. I would not bring my kids back at no cost, but tickets are not cheap. Hard pass on this place. read more

They wore their masks correctly, A+. I take my God son here for special occasions like his birthday and then I spend too much on a set of legos and we build those at home. It's a full day. During not pandemic times it is different with some snack offerings and more people. During the pandemic they have great things going on. They're masked up, people are cleaning stuff constantly, and your kid plays with a bag of Legos that is theirs to use during the visit. These legos are clean and when you're done they clean them again. There are also rides and G man really enjoys them. read more

LEGOLAND Discovery Center - Columbus - Amusement Parks Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

We'd heard a lot of mixed reviews about it, so I read through the website pretty thoroughly before making the decision to go. Between knowing what to expect (as stated on the website, this is an indoor playground for ages 3-10, and adults must have a child 17 or younger with them to enter) and getting a coupon for half price tickets, we felt ready for a good visit. We purchased timed tickets online in advance. They have a bunch of different add-on options, but we just went with standard tickets, which are pretty pricey at full price. There was still a short wait in line to enter, even with tickets in hand, but once inside, the kid was beyond excited. It starts with a Lego Factory tour, which is a short interactive video. The door than opens on one of two rides, the Kingdom Quest, which lets riders save the day by blasting different bad guys and critters. This was a big hit with the kids in the group, and we ended up on this ride several times. It was then downstairs to Miniland, which is captivating for anyone who likes to check out impressive builds. There is a large Columbus section in the center, with Cincinnati and Cleveland each getting space along the side of the room, and a small section for Ohio State. The kid loves seeing builds like this, and we came through here several times, as well. The final room is a very large space where there are a variety of hands-on building areas, including one for 2-5 year olds, a Lego Friends area, and a build and test area. The second ride is also in this room, Merlin's Apprentice Ride, which brings you around in a circle and you pedal (or not) to adjust how high you "fly" in the sky. This was another huge hit with the kid. In the far back are a climbing gym/play area and the 4D theater. The 4D theater is nicely designed and a friendly employee hands out clean 3D glasses as you enter. There were four different 15-ish minute movies playing on the day of our visit, and a sign indicated the times for each (since there is only one theater). The "4D" aspect is the addition of steam/smoke, sprays of water, wind, etc. during relevant moments of the movies. The movies hit many of the major Lego franchises - Lego Movie, Ninjago, Nexo Knights, and Lego City. The end of the journey is, of course, in the Lego shop. All in all, we spent nearly 3 hours in the Discovery Center, and the kid asked to come back the next day, so it was a big hit for us. The staff were all friendly. We were able to get parking in the nearby West Garage, which made for an easy in and out from Legoland. read more

On the pricey side but super impressive and worth checking out at least once in my opinion. The hours flew by taking my little niece and nephew here. There are so many unique and interactive experiences. Well designed and memorable. Highlights included the Merlin flying pedal carts, the creative workshop, incredibly detailed miniature town, and the 4D movie theater (I won't spoil the elements that make it 4 dimensions). As a whole, the employees were friendly and working very hard. read more

It is a pretty good experience although there are limited rides, it is still good. They didn't have the Lego passports though.

Overall, I would give this place between a 3 & 3.5. I purchased tickets and then read the reviews. To be quite honest, I was skeptical on everything. However, some of the stuff wasn't too bad. Parking in the west garage is perfect because we walked up a flight of stairs and it was right there. The tickets were $25 each, which cost me a little over $100. I think the prices for the tickets are a bit of a reach considering the parents don't really do anything. There's also not a whole lot to do in my opinion. We got there around 11:15 and waited in a long line even though we purchased tickets ahead of time (some people just walked in). The staff at the front was incredibly friendly. The girl who waited on us was SO nice and got my boys pumped up. When you first enter, they give you a QR code and you can take however many pictures you want. We waited in a line to be sent in to do some "interactive" thing. My kids are 5 & 8 and didn't seem overly thrilled. Then we went to the ride part. 3 of the 4 shooters worked, but mine did not. It wasn't very long, but the kids enjoyed it. When we finished up, we went into the room where there were a few different activities. There is a large playground jungle gym area. There's a ride but we couldn't use it right away, because no one was there to operate it. We did watch a 4D movie which was enjoyable. There's a few tables where you can build different things. There is a small area for kids ages 2-5. There was also a build and test area, which wasn't too bad. The shop area was nice and not overpriced. The prices were the same that you would find at Target. My husband had to go and find someone so we could make a purchase. She wasn't overly friendly and it was almost like a burden purchasing an item. Overall, it wasn't "bad" but we only spent about an hour and a half there. It started to get full halfway through. I would say go but don't set your expectations high. read more

So many issues here. The only reason I'm giving 2 stars is because most of the staff are so good with the kids. They make it fun. My biggest issue is the food policy. We have dietary restrictions (dairy, gluten) and they told us we could not bring our own food in. All of the options in the cafe contain gluten so that is not helpful. Any place where you take children for hours should allow packed lunches in my opinions. And if they're so greedy to not allow that, then they better have allergy friendly options. Consistency is not great either. We were allowed to bring food in our first 4 times to visit. They change whether kids are tall enough for rides dependent on who's working and measuring. read more

If you live near by and come more than 3x in a year, the annual family pass might be worthwhile ($60/person for 3+ passes). The normal price per ticket is $24 for 3+ years old. Kids 2 and under are free. Pricing is on the pictures. Weekends tend to be a bit hectic. Since we went on a Saturday afternoon after eating lunch and going later, it wasn't too crowded. There are 3 floors. After entering the first room, it was an introduction room. The second room was Kingdom Quest, think of a laser shooting game in a chariot, which was nicely done. Next was Miniland, miniature towns, buildings, landmarks in Ohio! Best miniature replicia is OSU -- during the day and night -- at night there are fireworks. Next is the main area which contains a build area, car racing area, party room, cafe, masterbuild room, Merlin's Apprentice ride (flying a chair), restrooms, and 4D movie theater (15 mins each) -- 2 movies when we went. The movies are Legoland and CityScape. Both are good. The Merlin's Apprentice ride was fun too -- remember to pedal to fly! If you are spendy hours here, it's worth the price considering you get to watch 2 - 15 mins 4D movie, play a laser game and ride an amusement park ride. After riding the Merlin's Apprentice ride, 3 times and going to Kingdom's Quest game 6 times. I will leave it up to you to decide whether it's worth it or not. Having the children excited and entertained was worth every penny. Best of it, the slept that night. Have a great time. read more

You need to plan your visit in advance when coming here. Luckily we purchased our tickets ahead of time online. We had 1:30PM reservations and when we got there there was a sign up saying now selling tickets for 4:00 PM entry. WHEEWWW!!!! That would have sucked. Especially, if we were on a tight schedule. Compared to other similar places this was just "ok". It seemed like they were short staffed. There was no one there to guide people through the opening interactive movie. And the guy who was operating the flying ride had to leave the ride to start one of the movie showings. When you get there there is an interactive movie where you help design lego characters. Then you head off to a ride where you are on a cart and shoot lasers a spiders, bolder throwing ogres, knights....Then you head down stairs to the exhibit/play area. The place has a large lego city scape area. The Ohio State football stadium and Cleveland display were pretty cool. There is also an area where you can build and race lego cars. They have a large jungle gym area and 3D/4D movie theater that plays movies every 30 minutes. There is also lego building seminars and areas around the playroom floor that kids can build legos. The highlight, however, has to be the large flying carousel ride though. Like may people have mentioned before the place is a bit overpriced compared to other places. But like I always say, the prices are not hidden and you can choose to pay it or not. I will say that they periodically run prices specials such as 40% off or buy one adult get a child ticket free. There is 3 hour free parking in some nearby lots and there is also metered parking on the street. I opted for the free parking. I really wanted to like this place more, but I feel that we did not get our money's worth. To make this place better I think they need more staff, lower ticket prices, and look at adding a new attraction or two. read more

BULLYING STAFF MEMBERS!! I can't even begin to describe the horrible time we had. At first; it was nice. We went on a Sunday afternoon, around 12:00. It was bare, and we immediately rode the Quest ride, which is a shooting simulator. After, we headed down the stairs and decided to get in line for the Merlin's Planes. I, a thirteen-year-old suffering from Tourette's, have severe eye tics, and when the operator had the nerve to look me in the eyes and say, "Are you okay? Your eyes are twitching a lot." In a very rude, not "concerned" manor, I had nearly had enough. We decided to watch the 4D movie, which sprinkles water on you several times, fair warning. Then, we decided to get lunch. I'm gluten-free, and their one gluten-free item was out of stock. The lunch costed us nearly $50 for two sandwiches and two bags of chips. We then played around, before purchasing from the store. I was happily surprise at the variety of Legos, and the prices. I ended up buying a Lego Friends house, for merely $80, which is usually $120 at the mall near my house. Overall, I thought this trip would be enjoyable, but the employee was completely heartless. I will say we met a very nice young employee who was very kind and helpful, but the day overall wasn't very pleasing. read more

I hate to do this, but I drove from Cleveland to Columbus to visit legoland. There was not much activities. You have to pay for yourself and your kid even though you're not partaking in any activities. The employees seemed annoyed when we would ask questions or needed any assistance. The jungle gym part was disgusting. It was just my kid on there and since I was in the height range I went in with her. I could not believe my eyes. I wish I could've got a refund honestly after seeing that. read more

Meh...my (and family's) expectations were way larger than actuality! It's a cool place, however, lacked the ability to keep my child (who loves legos) entertained for a long period of time. We ordered the stamp package and enjoyed stamping at each location. The LEGO race ramp seemed cool to my son. Both rides were okay. What he enjoyed most of all was the jungle gym. Overall, I think the price point triggers such high expectations. Also, is there really a need to charge parents full price to follow their children around or sit and wait for their child to finish playing? Half price my be more reasonable. read more

This place is neat, but probably not worth the price of single admission. Get an annual pass if this is your thing. First off, adults cannot enter without accompanying child, except for special adult only events. That said, even though the child admissions are relatively cheap, the adult is $24. So for two adults it's $48, and the place isn't really for them. That's a lot of money for my child to have fun. You start with a "factory tour". It's a little video with a few interactive elements. After the video, the door opens and you enter the Kingdom quest area. The walls are decorated with pretty 3D looking LEGO artwork. It looks like you're in a castle with the LEGO people. The only thing in this area is a ride. The warning label said it may be scary so we opted out thinking our little one may not be ready for it. Also the signage was very unclear and we weren't quite sure whether she was tall enough to go or not anyway. After that you take the elevator or stairs and the next area is called miniland. It's a LEGO recreation of downtown Columbus, Cincinnati, and Cleveland, as well as some of the campus area. This was very cool. There were several interactive components, but my daughter's favorite was starting the jackhammer in the street in Cincinnati. A few of the buttons didn't seem to do anything which was disappointing. After miniland it opened up into the main play area. There are several stations, including duplo farm for the little ones, the earthquake area, and an area to build and race cars. There is another ride in this area but again not sure if she could ride. Seemed like you had to be at least three feet but no more than four. I'm confused because I saw adults on the ride. This area was fun, and my daughter was all over the place getting into everything. She loved the animals in the duplo area. She didn't want to leave since she was having fun! This is better than some of the play cafes I've seen but also more expensive. Oh and they also had a cafe with coffee and food, but it was pricey. Overall a neat experience, but pricey. read more

Was very very disappointed with customer service here. Came here today and you watch a safety video then ride a train before entering the main area. The guy named Blake put the bar down on our train car and told us to keep our hands and feet inside. My kid sister replied very excitedly telling him that we're on vacation. He got super close to her face and with no emotion said "ok. did you hear what I said?" She immediately sadly shrunk down and said yes. He asked what and she repeated what he said. There was no reason to be mean to a child. She was just excited and he immediately shut her down and made her feel shame. Very disappointing and I feel really bad for my sister being made to feel this way for NO reason. I exposed her to this. read more

I went to LEGOLAND Columbus for the first time today with my sister & nephew and overall it was a great experience. Yes, I agree with all other reviews that the price for entry is ridiculous. I am sure LEGO is driving you to belly up to the yearly pass. It would pay for itself if you plan to go at least 3 times. But for $24/day for just an adult--your money would go way further at the Columbus Zoo or COSI. It is pretty cool to see how they transformed the old Gameworks/KDB into a very compartmental space that includes a few theaters, a cafe, a couple playgrounds, 2 rides & an exit gift shop. You first enter a theatre boxed in by 4 screens and are taken on a "virtual tour" of the factory and then using a joy stick you get to design a the head, torso & legs of a LEGO figure. I was kinda hoping that we'd actually get to customize a souvenir. That would have been really cool. If you've ever been to Disney, the first ride is very similar to the Buzz Lightyear Space Ranger Spin. It's Kingdom Quest-themed and you ride in a boat while using your zapper to aim and shoot at targets. Fun all around! Next you head into the MINILAND which is LEGO reproductions of Ohio cities: Columbus, Cincinnati & Cleveland. Very cool! They were all behind a clear partition, but buttons and joysticks allowed you to interact with the scenes. This was definitely my favorite part. You then enter the play area with dozens of different themed LEGO stations including Friends & DUPLO. You can join a class to build something (but you can't take it with you!) or you can let your kid burn off some steam on one of two playgrounds. They have a cafe for a quick coffee or snack, and tucked back in the corner is the other ride, Merlin's Apprentice. It is very similar to Disney's Dumbo ride, and you pedal to go up or down. Finally, every 30 minutes you can experience a 10 minute 4-D LEGO movie which includes 3-D glasses, and water, wind & fog special effects. We saw the Ninjago short. After the movie, we built race cars and zoomed them down the 3 racing ramps. Of course, any smart amusement facility will exit you through a gift shop. I purchased a few Christmas gifts and asked for the cashier for a gift receipt. They did not know what this was and suggested I don't lose my regular receipt if the gift needed to be returned. I was a little perplexed by this. In my mind, LEGO is an iconic, world-class brand, up there with the likes of Starbucks & Costco, yet the overall vibe I was getting from the employees was apathy. I'm paying for an experience and would like friendly, top-notch customer service at this price. So in summation, it was a fun experience and I had a really good time with my nephew. Really not worth the day pass rate to be honest. And, of course, LEGO continues to soak you, but this time you don't even get 1 LEGO brick to show for it. read more

Took my nephew to visit this place. I purchased our tickets online. $24 a person ($24 for Adults is expensive!) and Adults are not allowed without a child. I thought that part was funny but I quickly realized why once we got inside. This is not a adult friendly place at all. They don't even have adequate seating for adults to wait while the kids are playing. For $24 they should at least have more adult seating or adult admission should be free. I think they are pushing you to get a annual pass with the how expensive the single entry admission price. Once you exit the first ride and make it to the open area and your child makes their way inside the jungle gym maze good luck getting them to come out lol. The other play areas my nephew enjoyed as well as the movie and the 2nd ride. We did not go to the craft room because it the wait was long so I can't give feedback on that. Overall I probably would not go back because it just was way to expensive. read more

Not what I excepted... We took our little one here thinking it was an open play area for kids. When we arrived there was huge line waiting to get in, we were wondering why, it was then that we noticed a digital display advertising the price to get in. $24, what?!? With 2 adults and 1 toddler that would be $48 + tax, wow!! That seems expensive. We were hoping to just visit but did not pay this price to get in. We passed and decided to do other things instead. read more

You and your kid(s) can spend hours in Lego Land. There are couple of rides and a Lego 4D movie and different areas where you can play and build with Legos. There is an area where you can build cars and race with your friends or other people. The interactive MiniCity was pretty cool. It can get very crowded and the lines for the rides can get pretty long. It's a good place to go if you love Lego, But it's not worth the ticket price. read more

Busy, post Christmas holiday weekend. Had to book my time in advance online. If I were to walk up and buy on the spot, it would have been for 2-4 hours later. I know this because earlier in the week, we tried to do that and at 10am were offered 2:30pm as first entrance time available. I was able to get a BOGO ticket coupon/code from my local Wendy's. Otherwise this is $24/pp ages 2+. I purchased the bare bones admission, no extra lanyard or upgrades. Mom Pro Tip: Be prepared to wait in line for rides during peak visiting hours. Also prepare for messier bathrooms :( When you enter you line up, then there is a screening room where they show you a video tour of an actual lego factory. Then queue up for the first ride - a medieval shooter game - where you ride in a car and shoot at spiders, orcs, save a princess, etc. Next is the main room- the meat of the place. Duplo area for the smaller kids, a race track, the "girl" legos area, a small cafe (more on that in a minute), a 4D movie theater, a bike/Dumbo- esque wizard ride, and a 3 story climbing play area. That's it. So hope you like all that. Cafe is like the Starbucks you might come across in a Target, its not flashy, has beverages and some light food. Price is ok and they offer some light lunch options like kids sandwich, chips/fruit, and juice/milkbox for $8 min. Just don't expect much, its just a pick up counter and an espresso machine. Overall, this place is just, fine. I would not go regularly and am not interested in a season pass. Just not enough for my young family at this time and may not be in the future. Maybe would bring out of town guests here, but really prefer the Zoo and Cosi for more variety and ability to spend a longer time. We clocked in around 2.5 hours before we had "seen it all". read more

We had some coupons for kids to go free so it made a little more cost effective. Buy the tickets online for ease and to ensure you make it in. Arrived, scanned the barcodes and we were on our way. It gets crowded, loud especially in the climbing/play area. I left my kids run and we grabbed a Starbucks coffee. An area to build your own car, wheels are the hot commodity to find matching ones to build your own car. My kids did best in the LEGO area with building your own city. There are some buildings already constructed and held together with kragle, then can add on to those and build new ones. A great afternoon to construct and use or imagination to create. read more

LEGOLAND is open! LEGOLAND was just recently put inside the Easton Mall. Originally I was confused with what it was... since there is a LEGO store located just outside of the mall. It's got the LEGOLAND amusement park inside, cost is a little over $20 per person to get inside. Outside of the amusement park entrance is what seems to be a LEGO store, it's a smaller version with LEGO sets and build-it-yourself stations scattered. Great place to take the kids to experience LEGO fun read more

As a boymomma to 3 boys who love Legos we always enjoy our time at the Discovery Center. We are annual pass holders and I enjoy the ability to pop in and out when we want, especially if it gets busy! There is plenty to do in the center. Two rides, several building areas, a large climbing play structure, miniland, 4D movie theater, a cafe that also serves Starbucks (score!), and mini build classes every half hour. It can get busy on the weekends, so I suggest going during the week if you can. Also, order your tickets online so you can save money and get a designated time to enter if you do not have an annual pass! read more

I wanted to update my previous review. LEGOLAND has added more staff, so the play areas and bathrooms have improved considerably. My son loves talking with the staff. I am so appreciative of their kindness and patience. For my LEGO-loving kid, the annual pass has been great, especially on the hot and humid summer days. Thanks again to the LEGOLAND staff for your awesome support. You're the best! read more

A great way to spend 1/2 a day! Legoland can easily keep a LEGO lover (of any age) busy for several hours but I wouldn't say it's an all day trip. Adults (even those without a passion for the tiny multI colored building blocks) can appreciate a room filled with the city of Columbus, LEGO style. From the tall downtown towers to the arches of the Short North, they have recreated our beautiful city. The room lights up and dims to view the city during "daytime/nightime". I could've spent hours in that room just viewing the detail and I'm not much of a builder. For the kids, there are two rides in Legoland (my newly turned 3 year old was tall enough to ride both) that all 3 of my children enjoyed (13, 5 and 3). There is an area with "LEGO Friends" to build different pieces. They have also included an area that you can build a race car and there is a track to race them. The jungle gym in Legoland is huge and the younger ones played in that for quite sometime. Overall, it would be a great place to take the kids and relax (they have a cafe with coffee and lunch items) for a few hours. Don't forget to find a promo code online and buy tickets in advance because it is a bit pricey! read more
