Cousins' Week - the Botanica

What kid doesn't like Legos, right?  When we found out that the Botanica had larger than life Lego sculptures, we knew we had to go!

 It is part of a nationally touring art exhibit called "Nature Connects" featuring over 300,000 Lego bricks throughout the gardens.  The sculptures were created by New York-based artist Sean Kenney.

It almost looks like a pixelated photo!

I love all the bronze sculptures too!

This girl was getting her pictures taken, probably for her 15th birthday celebrating quinceañera.

This goldfinch sculpture uses the least Lego bricks, at 1,078 pieces.  Even the bird seed are Lego pieces!

This one uses the most at 61,372 Lego pieces!

Making music!

One of my favorites!

If you live in the Wichita, KS area, this exhibit is showing through September 19!  Go see it!!  The kids really enjoyed it!
