Some of my best childhood memories having grown up an only child are of spending a weekend reading an entire book or building a giant Lego set that would take hours to construct. Looking back on those marathon Lego-building sessions now from the perspective of my parents, they probably jumped for joy whenever I chose to spend my weekend that way for all the time they got to themselves.
So if you're in the market for a weekend alone(ish), check out these large Lego sets — including the epic Harry Potter Hogwarts Castle set — that will keep your little builder occupied for many, many hours. They also make for great holiday gifts, because every parent needs me time during the holidays, right?
Hogwarts Castle
The Hogwarts Castle ($400, available Sept. 1) set has 6,020 pieces — so kick up your feet and grab a cool beverage.
Disney Castle
Who needs a trip to Orlando when you can build a 4,080-piece Disney Castle ($472) in your own home?
Millennium Falcon
Hello, 7,541-piece Millennium Falcon ($800) that'll get you at least 48 hours of solid me time.
Roller Coaster
You could take your kids to a theme park, or you could watch them build the 4,124-piece Lego Creator Roller Coaster ($380) — we know which we'd choose.
Taj Mahal
The 5,923-piece Taj Mahal ($370) set is definitely going to take them a while — most of the pieces are the same color!
