Play Inside the Worldʼs
Biggest Lego Box
W
hether you’ve got a child or young friend who loves
Lego, or you like constructing wildly imaginative
buildings and worlds yourself, Legoland Discovery
Center Westchester has room for you. Located at Ridge Hill
Shopping Center in Yonkers, Legoland caters to people of all
ages, offering Little Playtimes for kids up to age five (age two
and under are admitted for free) and Home School Days for kids
of all ages during the day, as well as monthly Adult Nights
featuring Master Builder Challenges.
The center is not quite as replete with attractions as it is with
Lego pieces, but it offers plenty of fun-filled options. Take a ride
through a unique Lego world via Kingdom Quest, Merlin’s
Apprentice or the newest attraction, Ninjago City Adventure,
which just opened in April. Visit the Miniland interactive city and
Star Wars Miniland, each constructed with more than 1.5 million
Lego pieces and featuring hidden Minifigures. See The Lego
Movie 4D: A New Adventure at the Lego 4D Cinema. Attend the
Master Builder Academy. Take a factory tour. Build and test Lego
racing cars. Check out Lego earthquake simulations. Let your
small tykes play in Duplo Village. Or meet for healthy foods and
sweet snacks at the Lego Café, and check out the gift shop on
the way out.
Perhaps the best part of a visit to Legoland Discovery Center
Westchester is this: You don’t have to pick up the pieces
afterwards!
Legoland Discovery Center Westchester is open 365
days a year, 10 am to 7 pm Sunday to Thursday (last entry
at 5 pm) and 10 am to 9 pm on Fridays and Saturdays (last
entry at 7 pm). It’s approximately five miles from the Yonkers
station with taxi, bus or a Zip Car service nearby.
