Lucas Atkinson will have an amazing story about his birth. And it's all true. Lucas arrived into the world on August 30 in an unusual place: the parking lot at the Legoland Windsor Resort in the UK. Janine Atkinson was on her way to the hospital to give birth, but Lucas wasn't willing to wait. She pulled over at Legoland and her son became the first baby born there. "To celebrate his very special birth place, Lucas has been given the gift of a lifetime worth of visits to the resort! How awesome is that?" Legoland Windsor posted in a Facebook update along with a photo of the happy family and a glimpse at the baby's birth certificate. The certificate is very specific about the location: "Legoland Windsor, Winkfield Road, Windsor on the way to Wexham Park Hospital Slough." Lucas can look forward to exploring the Land of the Vikings, Knights Kingdom, Pirate Shores, Lego City and the Kingdom of the Pharaohs as he gets older. He will no doubt enjoy Duplo Valley as soon as he's old enough to walk.
His name will also be displayed on a wall of Legoland lifetime pass holders. The pass is quite a coup for a youngster. A regular individual annual pass costs £169 (US$260, AU$369). If this story follows through to its Hollywood ending, then Lucas will grow up to be a Lego Master Builder, which isn't much of a stretch considering his birthplace and the fact that his father's occupation on his birth certificate is listed as "builder." The Lego is strong with this one.CreativePlay.co.za is an exclusively LEGO® online store based in the Western Cape, South Africa.

Invented in the small Danish town of Billund in 1932, the plastic yellow people have come a long way from the humble workshop of a local carpenter. To this day, Billund is still the global headquarters of the toy company, the Lego factory as well as Legoland, where kids of all ages can get to grips with 9 themed Lego ‘lands’, 4 roller-coasters, 2 water rides and over 40 other attractions built from some 60 million bricks.
Set in a country that consistently tops lists of ‘world’s happiest nations’, it’s fair to say Legoland in Billund is up there as one of the best places on earth to take kids. Check out our tips and feedback from a family who recently visited: The Severens family recently travelled to Billund with their two children aged four and seven. We caught up with them to find out more about their trip, here’s their verdict: “Legoland Billund is the perfect choice for families like us who are not big fans of crowds or commercialism. The Duplo imaginative playground was one amazing discovery after another for our 4-year old who had fun playing shopkeeper one minute and a fire-fighter the next. But what I loved most about Legoland is that there was so much to do for younger children. The Imagination Zone, Miniland and Duplo Land are perfect for babies and children up to four years of age. While kids between 4 and 8 will enjoy the attractions of the Legoredo town, Pirate Land and Knight’s Kingdom, Polar Land is suited to slightly older children.
As soon as you enter the park, you’ll notice Miniland all around your feet with its miniature buildings, trains and boats, all made of Lego. Duplo Land, the next zone, is just perfect for toddlers, with its cute Duplo playground and tiny tricycles. These zones will keep young kids busy all morning. Our 4-year old and 7-year old rode the Duplo merry go round again and again. And after that, they made a beeline for the Duplo train. A bit further into the park, the zones appeal mostly to children 4 years and up. We just loved the Pirate Splash Battle, pirate boats and Lego canoe. Knight’s Kingdom has more kid-friendly roller-coasters and there’s the wonderful Viking River splash. The ride our kids enjoyed most was The Temple Treasure Hunt. We also took part in the Falck Fire Brigade challenge and competed against other families to be the fastest and best fire brigade. We skipped Polar Land, since its activities were only accessible for taller children. We stayed 2 nights at a hotel in nearby Grindsted, but if you have younger children who are in the habit of taking day-time naps, there is plenty of other accommodation on site: Lalandia offers holiday homes, there’s a Legoland hotel too.
