Lego watering can instructions

As for the printed or stickered Lego, do not use the water-wash method. Instead, gently clean each piece individually with a microfiber cloth. Periodically turn bricks over with your hand to bring new ones to the surface. Gently sweep your set with a clean paint brush to loosen dust. We like Purdy Clearcut brushes, and an angled tip provides more flexibility to get into corners. Smaller brushes the kind used for working with watercolors are good for extremely tight spaces.

As dust is dislodged, capture it with a cordless vacuum. For more control, use one that comes with a crevice attachment and a clear basin to check for any pieces that might get accidentally sucked inside.

White, light gray, and translucent bricks can yellow over time, especially after prolonged exposure to sunlight. Soaking old white bricks in hydrogen peroxide is a popular method to brighten them up, and YouTuber JangoBricks demonstrates how to do this. First clean the bricks with soap and water. Make sure all pieces remain submerged, and periodically wipe away any bubbles that form to ensure all surfaces are brightened.

After the pieces have soaked for several hours, rinse clean and dry. Joshua Lyon is the editor of emergency-preparation and home-improvement topics at Wirecutter. Excellent post!

Wonderful research! I especially like the graduating water in Microscale island. It is very realistic. Also, some of the waterfall thechniques are great! Nicely done!

I was a little grossed out about how dirty the Lego wash water had become.

This was an unusual Lego play idea for us, but maybe we should do it again sometimes- those things were grimy! They can make interesting waterfall structures, bridges or islands. Lego Boats — Of course you can get Lego sets with actual Lego boats in them, but it can also be fun to make your own and see what makes them float and what makes them sink. Lego Water Wheel — You can find instructions on Frugal Fun for Boys and Girls for how to make a water wheel and a cool water course with legos.

Lego Dams — These dams on Little Bins for Little Hands tap into our endless curiosity for how water moves and how it can make other things move. Thanks for the great reminder that Legos in water are a lot of fun!!

I know! My mom has been doing this with my little one when she babysits and they also use her magnetic letters. Too cute! This is really cool. My boys love Legos, and they love water play. Combine the two and WIN! Sharing on my FB. This is a great idea! My boys are doing it right now with their duplo blocks.
