LEGO’s Lunar New Year, Valentine’s Day Sets Are Educational & Endearing

New year, new holiday LEGO sets! 

The LEGO Group is starting strong this month with a festive new collection of LEGO sets, all celebrating the joy and traditions of upcoming holidays. From traditional Lunar New Year symbols to sugary-sweet Valentine’s Day kits, these LEGO sets establish the positive tone for a joyful year of play.

Although these playsets are intended for kids ages 9 and up, they can serve as a fun activity for the entire family. These LEGO sets give parents an opportunity to share their unique history and cultures with their kids — all while having fun playing with LEGO bricks!

The Good Fortune LEGO set is an exciting, engaging way for families to explore the traditions of the Lunar New Year. This kit includes more than 1,000 pieces to recreate the celebration’s meaningful artifacts — like a fan, a vase of fortune red fruit, juicy persimmons, gold ingots, a calligraphy brush, and a scroll that reads “spring” in Chinese. The fan and display stand are fully customizable, so families can celebrate the new year in their own way. 

The LEGO Trotting Lantern set lights the way to a happy and bright new year. With just the push of the rotating center column, the 1,295-piece lantern flickers to life! Kids can unfold the lantern to discover a glowing marketplace, five mini-figures, and a shadow theater where they can create different lighting effects. Traditional imagery decorates the colorful lantern, shining a light on the important culture and customs of the holiday. 

Wave “hello” to a lucky year with this LEGO version of the historic Lucky Cat! The set captures every detail of the original statuettes, from its smiling eyes and whiskers to a working pendulum to make the cat wave. Little builders can decorate the cat with a gold coin or a traditional wish for good fortune written in Chinese. Whether it grins on a bookshelf or beckons from a toy box, this cat will bring your family good luck all year!

Your family can also build Valentine’s Day sets that will make your hearts (and wings) flutter! With 412 pieces, the Sweetheart Tweety Bird kit includes everything kids need to build the iconic Looney Tune — no puddy tats allowed! This charming canary model can be styled in two ways: on a cloud pedestal, aiming Cupid’s bow and arrow, or holding a flower bouquet.

If you’re a little less looney and a little more lovey, the LEGO Love Bears set is here to bring little builders all the warm and fuzzies. In this 287-piece construction kit, kids can assemble two love-struck bears alongside romantic accessories like a box of chocolates and flowers. Display the bears together on the stand, or give a bear to your special honey as a Valentine’s Day gift. One thing’s for sure: this set is unbearably cute!

It’s never too early to start holiday celebrations! These new LEGO sets are available now at the links below.
