Legoland Discovery Center set to open

July 20, 2008

A Legoland Discovery Center is opening in the Chicago suburb of Schaumburg, Ill.. Fans of the toy bricks may already be familiar with the Legoland theme park in Carlsbad, Calif., but this will be the first Legoland Discovery Center in the U.S. It's modeled after two similar attractions in Germany. The 30,000-square-foot center will featurehands-on brick-building activities, a dragon ride and a 4-D movie with special effects. The center's grand opening is July 31.
