Best of BrickNerd — Article originally published December 18, 2022. Being an AFOL can be a big commitment—you have LEGO deals to be found, a collection to sort, LUGs to attend, and conventions to go to. But what happens when you are an AFOL with kids? If you’re an adult collector of LEGO, sharing your hobby with young children can be a frightening experience.

Enjoy a post-holiday treat of LEGO community highlights, found in the mystical lands between daily advent calendar reviews and set announcements!
