Do you remember how much fun you had playing with the LEGO blocks when you were a kid? Those blocks are just as much fun today; they have been updated to reflect the interests of the modern child.

Take LEGO’s Alien Conquest and Ninjago lines: with the alien conquest sets you can get different sets for kids to build alien characters and alien worlds. One of the favourites is the Space Tripod Invader set. This is a 166-piece set which has the Invader and it comes with an alien, a mini green alien pet and a human. The tripod Invader has a cockpit that swings open so kids can put the alien or the human inside. The alien can give chase in its saucer. For kids who love outer space and all things alien this set is a must have.

They would also like the Space UFO Abduction set, which comes with the Alien Defense soldier, where the aliens are after the farmer to abduct him and get him aboard their spacecraft. The set is 211 pieces and has an illuminating tractor beam and a flicker missile. This set, like the Invader one is on the hot toys list for 2011.

When it comes to the alien line in LEGO blocks, the set to round off the collection is the Space Alien Mothership; it’s one of the coolest sets you can get for your child. It has 416 pieces and plays the sounds only a UFO would make. The set has an alien commander determined to wreak havoc and a civilian reporter who’s determined to expose the truth about these invaders but can he avoid getting caught by the mothership?

LEGO also has a Ninjago line that’s popular with kids and also made the hot toy list. The Ninjago Ice Dragon attack is one of the ones that many kids have popped on their Christmas list this year. This set fulfils the quest to get the Shurikens of Ice through the dangerous Underworld. The Skeleton Army of course are determined that evil will triumph over good, as they chase the heroic Zane through the Underworld.

The Ninjago weapons must be found in order to restore good, the heroes of the Ninjago line are just the ones to bring about the order. This 158 piece set includes the Ice Dragon, Shurikens of Ice, Zane and Krazi, one of the Skeleton Army determined to stop Zane.

The LEGO’s Ninjago line also includes the Ninjago Fire Temple. Legend has it that the fight for the Dragon Sword of Fire has its origins in the temple. For good to win, the Fire Dragon has to be set free and the only way for this to happen is by tearing the temple in half. The dragon allows the ninjas to take to the skies in the ultimate duel between good and evil. The graphics on this set are artistically painted on and the set comes with over a thousand pieces for play. Your child will love building his world of LEGO battles and ready for the ultimate victory when showdown time arrives.
