Make-A-Wish Colorado Builds Playhouse Out Of Legos For Boy Recovering From Cancer

6-year-old Alexander wished for a playhouse. So, for five weekends, a crew of 20 volunteers from Make-A-Wish Colorado worked to build a playhouse in Alexander’s basement made almost entirely out of legos. The playhouse includes a built-in loft with a bed, pull-out couch, and a TV. Some other fun amenities are lego pillowcases and family pictures framed, of course, with lego.
The group used an estimated 10,000 to 12,000 legos to complete the playhouse.
Make-a-Wish purchased most of the Lego; the rest were donated by the Colorado and Wyoming Lego User Group. United Health Care volunteers also contributed to the 50-hour effort.
