The Best LEGO Sets for Kids in 2025

Author : Henry Mar 17,2025

LEGO's appeal transcends age, but it wasn't always this way. While Adult Fans of LEGO (AFOLs) have always existed, sets specifically designed for adults are a relatively recent phenomenon. This broadened audience can make choosing LEGOs for kids tricky. Previously, the age range on the box largely indicated complexity. Now, an 18+ designation can mean a simple build, an adult-themed set, or a display piece rather than a toy. Many adult sets can't withstand the rigors of an eight-year-old's play, while many kids' sets prioritize playability and accessibility over perfect realism.

Below are some of the best LEGO sets for kids in 2025 – focusing on sets designed for imaginative play.
