The very definition of

SMARTS

There's this really expensive and exclusive Lego chess set on the market; so exclusive, it's not even available for purchase in the United States, and of course, my son has had his eye on it.

560-380-legochess

It retails for somewhere in the neighborhood of $200—sorry, I just had to cough—dollars. Even though Cole's birthday is months away yet, of course he would point this out as a possible idea. My response? "I don't have a job."

Rather than let my less than encouraging response beat down his indomitably sunny outlook, he took action and last week, created his own, playable version.

Took him hours, but he figured it out. Complete with one-of-a-kind pawns, knights, kings and queens.

The next time I'm all whining about the stuff I don't have, maybe I should just bust out the bricks. I'll bet it's possible to build just about anything.

    Your son is pretty creative and innovative, for sure.

    I saw online the other day.. can’t remember where though… someone had made an entire life-size computer desk out of Legos. It was pretty amazing.

    cole is a genius. love this!

    could you please ask him to make a PAYCHECK out of those bricks? dh has been unemployed for 3 months (although he is returning to work next week) but i would send him every lego we have in our house if he could make a bankable paycheck out of them!

    Just found it for you! Approximately 35,000 LEGO bricks were used to build that desk.

    Here is the story: http://www.ericharshbarger.org/lego/desk.html

    And here it is photographed:

    Wonderful Job Cole! Cathy thanks for sharing…kids keep us real. I just moved (downsized) and we had legos in the attic…some exclusive sets from Europe…and my husband didn’t care about keeping them…but I insisted…we will have grand-babies someday and we are such a throw-away society now that it saddens me. Anyhow, I showed my husband this blog post and he appreciates my OCD now with the legos…lol

What kind of containers do you use? Do you keep the sets together or just dump all the bricks together? Other Lego moms, I would love to here your suggestions as well!

Lots of other things we would rather spend money on. Anywho, he does the same thing as Cole. Makes what he wants out of his lego collection. He has made some crazy things and I have a book of photos with all his lego creations.

    And do you know what? Now, BOTH of them are civil engineers – and they love their work. They say they owe it all to years of lego and Simcity!

    question: when you store the legos in bins do you sort them in any way. my son was so into logos when cole’s age (now 25) and i saved most of them. now my grand children are into them and i have always tried to sort them in some sort or order. tired color, shape, size, and other. but they always seem to end up in just one big pile of doo doo. would really love to find a better way since i spend much more time making things with the grand kids than i did with my kids 🙁

    WHOA! Nice work Cole!!! I like his version better. Legos are the only thing my 6 year-old son plays with. I’ll have to show him this when he’s home from school.

    My son does the exact thing. He will disappear into his “Lego Lair” for hours and show back up with some totally amazing thing he saw online or just came up with by himself. I wish I had the creativity and patience to do that too!

    Fabulous job! I think Cole is well on his way to being a professional designer.

    Meanwhile, I read this and couldn’t help but think of this blog I saw a while ago: http://niemann.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/02/02/i-lego-ny/.

    Seems there is an inherent talent for Lego-izing anything in the world…

    My son when he was Cole’s age wanted to be a LEGO designer and work at LEGO LAND … (In the back of his mind he still does…) … That type of creativity can not be taught! Way to go Cole!

    Now there’s some ingenuity. He reminds me of his can-do mom…although you never made a Lego iphone, I’m sure you thought of it.

    I would be happy to pitch in to the Cole Lego Fund, if he gives me partial copyrights on his later inventions. 🙂

    I have to say . . . I like Cole’s chess set better than lego’s version.

    Wow! That is impressive. While it would be a shame to sell such talented, creative work, I bet he could sell it for as much money as it would take to buy the one he has his eye on. I think the one he created has much more value though, being that it is his own creation, and one of a kind. Cole, you are pretty neat.

    That’s one amazing kid. You need to contact Legos about him. They should be paying him for this stuff!

    That’s quite awesome. I’ll tell youse something more awesome. HEAVEN ABOVE. Beyond super-dooper awesome. These are 15 verses I love which’ll help you wiseabove. May God flagrantly bless you, my friend, and may the Trinity always put two options in thy Finite Existence (L or R) so you know the Way home to Heaven. May I meet you Upstairs and we’ll go for a beer? I’d like that.

    My son has also been eyeing that chess set. He’s a Lego maniac! He was sitting right here with me when I looked a Cole’s chess set and he thought (and so did I) that it was WAY COOL!

    Just got back from Legoland (which is like crack for boys) and they had a lego chess set for sale there – it was about $50. I’m not sure it was the same one (didn’t look too close at it and went for the lego tic-tac-toe set instead).
