If you or your kids love Lego and animals, you can combine the two to give the summer holidays a fun send-off. 

Recently, the Toronto Zoo announced that it will host a Lego build experience created in partnership with the Legoland Discovery Centre and Lego DREAMZzz. The experience, which will include two Lego master model builders constructing a 22-foot Lego mosaic wall and a huge 3D Narwhal Unicorn from the popular Lego DREAMZzz TV series, will kick off on Aug. 29 and run through the Labour Day long weekend. 

The event, which will take place in the Wildlife Marquee, is also being held to celebrate the zoo’s 50th anniversary. 

In a news release, organizers said visitors can immerse themselves in animal-themed creations, assist the builders in constructing the Narwhal Unicorn, contribute to the mosaic wall, and enjoy a “vibrant, interactive experience.” 

“This event provides a perfect summer outing for families looking to combine their love for wildlife and LEGO build in one memorable visit,” organizers wrote. 

The build will be open from 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. every day from Aug. 29 until Sept. 2. 

The experience is included in the price of a general admission ticket.
