Gifts for Lego Lovers: Perfect For Kids and Adults

Do you have a LEGO lover in your life? Sometimes finding the perfect set to give as a gift can be challenging. To help you choose, Sarah and Gretchen from the MoneySavingMom team have compiled a list of their favorite LEGO sets in a variety of themes.

As moms of LEGO lovers, they enjoy building both on their own and with their kids — and have plenty of favorites to recommend!

Even better, these sets are all under $30 to help you stick to your gift budget. (And be sure to follow along as we post the hottest LEGO deals throughout the season!)

Best Cute LEGO Gifts: LEGO Friends

My daughter has been playing with LEGO Friends sets for years. She loves interacting with the sets and rebuilding them with her own creative imagination. – Sarah

LEGO Creator

The LEGO Creator 3-in-1 sets are great because they help teach kids to look at new ways of assembling the pieces to create something entirely new! This can help develop their imagination and allow them to combine all sorts of sets to build anything they can think of. It’s also sort of like getting three sets for the price on one.

Best LEGO Gifts for Adults and Kids: Technic

LEGO Technic beams connect to make sturdier builds and can even work with gears to create simple engines. They help LEGO builders learn the basics of physics and engineering and they’re great for play because they’re sturdier than typical builds. Some are even pullback or work with a remote control!

Harry Potter LEGO Gifts

There are so many cool LEGO sets for Harry Potter fans! They often include clever hidden details from the books and movies that are magical surprises for Potterheads to discover.

Best LEGO Gifts: Duplo

LEGO DUPLO bricks are perfect for young children, because these blocks are larger and don’t present as much of a choking hazard. They also help young children develop fine motor skills, while teaching them basic STEM concepts like pattern recognition, simple mathematics, and spatial awareness. Our kids loved DUPLO starting from about 18 months old and we enjoyed building with our kids before they were old enough for regular LEGO brick sets. 

Bright green LEGO DUPLO storage box with a lime green brick shaped lid and colorful building pieces pictured on the front.

My teen son has built several of these and this set is probably his favorite.
