A LEGOLAND Discovery Centre employee has shared the top tips every family should use to make the most of their next visit. <\/p>\n

Planning a day out can take a lot of work, but an expert has revealed how families can make the most out of their visit to the Legoland Discovery Centre. <\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

The indoor Lego attraction, which has locations in both Birmingham and Manchester, has been described as a smaller version of Legoland Windsor. <\/p>\n

The Legoland Discovery Centre has its own rides and attractions including Kingdom Quest, a 4D cinema, and a virtual reality experience. <\/p>\n

Despite being open seven days a week, the Legoland Discovery Centre can get very busy during the weekends. <\/p>\n

Michelle Oakes, Lego Master Model Builder at the Birmingham Discovery Centre, told Sun Online Travel: "On really busy days, it can get quite full. <\/p>\n

Legoland is hiring ‘Master Model Builders’ to play with bricks for \u00a321k-a-year<\/h3>\n

"Days when it's not so busy are obviously during the term time, but if you and your kids have a Friday afternoon off, that's also a good time to come.<\/p>\n

"My best advice is to come here for when doors open because that's when we're at our quietest." <\/p>\n

Visitors to the Legoland Discovery Centre will be able to experience a handful of rides and other attractions. <\/p>\n

One of those is Kingdom Quest where visitors will need to help save the captured princess by shooting a series of villains. <\/p>\n

Michelle, who has worked at the centre for five years, added: "On this ride, families can have some fun and shoot at the targets, and it's almost important to get competitive because there's a scoreboard at the end." <\/p>\n

Other rides include Merlin's Apprentice Ride. <\/p>\n

Michelle added: "Then, you go through the Miniland, which includes some of Birmingham's biggest landmarks." <\/p>\n

In addition to the rides, there are also three different 4D films that are shown every 20 to 30 minutes.<\/p>\n

According to Michelle, the 4D films are bespoke to the Legoland Discovery Centre, so they're a must for Lego fans. <\/p>\n

Michelle said: "After you've done all of this, you can go into the creative workshop, which people can book as an additional extra when they buy their ticket." <\/p>\n

In the creative workshop, Master Model Builders teach visitors how to build Lego models. <\/p>\n

Michelle added: "The Master Model Builder will stand at the front of the room, and build the model in real-time with step-by-step instructions. <\/p>\n

Other attractions include the VR Race Experience, a soft play area, and the Lego Racers Build and Test area.<\/p>\n

Michelle said: "Inside the Build and Test area, there are lots of car parts and pieces that visitors can use to build race cars, monster trucks, and just everyday family saloons. <\/p>\n

"Everyone enjoys this area because of the collorabtion between the parents and the children.<\/p>\n

"It's a great area to make good memories with young children because you have the creative element."<\/p>\n

While the rides and attractions are well sign-posted throughout the Discovery Centre, there are some features families could accidentally skip.<\/p>\n

Michelle said: "I think families could potentially miss the character meet and greets, especially if they're busy in other areas. <\/p>\n

"They could also miss the cinema showings too, as they may not realise there are three different 4D films." <\/p>\n

The Legoland Discovery Centre in Birmingham is also recruiting two assistant builders to help build LEGO displays, run workshops, and build their own creations too. <\/p>\n

Michelle added: "Our job advert is closing this week, but we're still welcoming new applicants.<\/p>\n

"Once we've gone through the applications, candidates will be asked to submit a video of themselves completing a themed build challenge." <\/p>\n

"We're looking for someone who is really positive, energetic, and enthusiastic about Lego."<\/p>\n

Applications to become a Master Model Builder close at the end of the week, and anyone interested in applying should visit the website, here.<\/p>\n

The Legoland Discovery Centre is situated in the heart of Birmingham with entry tickets costing \u00a312.50 for an adult and child combo ticket.<\/p>\n
