Shop Target’s trending LEGO sets: Star Wars, Minecraft, and more

Must read

You won’t be breaking the bank with these bricks.

Target offers one of the widest children’s toy categories in the retail sphere, and the LEGO section does not disappoint. Shoppers can find bestselling LEGO from popular shows and movies, like Star Wars, Minecraft, Disney, and more.

Maybe you have a little builder on your hands, or you, yourself, like a challenge. Some of these sets take hours of focus to build and are a great test of patience. They’re also a smart choice as far as educational toys go. LEGOs can help kids practice their fine motor skills and spatial awareness while fostering creativity and providing a deep sense of accomplishment.

I mean, who doesn’t want to see Princess Moana’s Wayfinding Boat come to life, or watch real-action unfold in an ancient city built from Minecraft’s Deep Dark Battle?
