When I was growing up, my brothers and I spent many happy hours building structures and vehicles from our large bucket of assorted Legos collected over the years.  Though the surly bonds of adulthood seldom encourage revisiting such valuable childhood frivolities, I had a chance to live vicariously through local kids thanks to the most recent Legos @ McKune event at the Chelsea Library.

On the first Monday of every month, the library invites kids to dive into an impressive collection of Legos and build to their hearts’ content.  The creations are prominently displayed near the main door until the next month’s first Monday, at which point the fun starts all over again.
