Empowering creative confidence through play
Through creative play, The LEGO Group hopes to unlock girls’ creative confidence by liberating them from the pressure of perfection and enjoying the freedom to Play Unstoppable. With a bigger portfolio of LEGO play that caters to diverse interests and passions, young girls can create endless worlds across various themes such as LEGO Friends, Disney PrincessTM, Creator, Classic, DREAMZzzTM, Harry PotterTM, Minecraft®, Gabby's Dollhouse and an all-new Animal CrossingTM theme.
For example, the LEGO Friends theme is designed to play out a wide variety of scenes based on real-life experiences, including interaction with environmental issues such as tree planting, animal conservation and electric vehicles. Children can even combine different sets to make a whole Friends neighbourhood to play in! On the other hand, LEGO DREAMZzzTM features innovative building sets that use story-led instructions to invite kids into the action and empower them with the freedom to create any fantastical creatures and vehicles they can dream up.
This year, some of the new sets include ::-
42614 LEGO® Friends Vintage Fashion Store where young builders can have fun with upcycled clothing items while learning about sustainability; and a detailed
43246 LEGO® Disney PrincessTM Market Adventure which opens endless play possibilities for fans of Disney.

Jacinth Liew, Parenting Coach, Our Little Playnest, also shares actionable ways for parents to inspire their girls to experiment, take creative risks and embrace failure with LEGO play:
● Build a LEGO trophy for each other with 42620 LEGO Friends Olly and Paisley’s Family Houses and discuss and celebrate each other’s strengths. This helps to create a supportive family environment, builds confidence in your child and helps her to see that her thoughts and feelings matter.
● Use LEGO bricks and paint to create sculptures with 42604 LEGO Friends Heartlake City Shopping Mall to tell a story. In the process of creation, we are bound to face roadblocks but by putting on our thinking caps to solve the problem, it can be a stepping stone for growth.
● Ignite your child’s imagination by tasking them to build a futuristic fashion store with 42614 LEGO Friends Vintage Fashion Store. Encourage your child to think out of the box and let their imagination run wild.
LEGO sets are available across LEGO® Certified Stores, LEGO Official Store on Lazada, Shopee, LEGOLANDTM, as well as major retailers and department stores in Malaysia.
