When it comes to magic, Disney does it best – and now, LEGO® bricks make that magic something your kids can hold, build and play with because adventure is always out there. If your child can’t stop talking about Moana’s ocean voyages or Mickey Mouse’s hilarious antics, this guide is your secret spellbook. We’ll break down the most beloved LEGO | Disney characters, the sets they appear in, and why kids love them.
Let’s start with the cult classics – the characters who’ve been helping kids see the joyful side of life for nearly a century. Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse and Daisy Duck headline the LEGO | Disney classic characters lineup, often joined by their adorable pets like Figaro, Creampuff and Mama Bunny. These characters bring playful nostalgia to life. Kids can roleplay Disney-style adventures – hosting a garden tea party with Minnie, helping Mickey fix his vintage car or building Daisy’s colorful boutique.
Parents can also join in (read: take the lead). Embrace childhood memories and make brand-new ones during family playtime where different generations can share the joy together.
Dazzling dresses? Tick. Magic kingdoms? Tick. Fierce, independent spirit? Tick! The Disney Princess characters hold a special place in so many hearts (adults included!) for one simple reason: they’re the perfect blend of brilliant and brave, making magical role models for little ones when it comes to their own enchanting escapades. The LEGO | Disney Princess minifigures provide magical play moments. From enchanted castles to undersea kingdoms, LEGO | Disney Princess sets let kids step straight into their favorite fairytales.
Aurora & Prince Philip (Sleeping Beauty)
From rewriting the tale of her pricked finger to dreaming up another spellbinding ending to this fairytale, Aurora’s dreamy castle scenes offer no end to the tales to be told. Parents can join in to take on one of the other characters too, which range from Prince Philip to Maleficent in dragon form – but ultimately… might not have a say in the matter!
Ariel, Flounder, Sebastian & Ursula (The Little Mermaid)
Life is the bubbles under the sea! With The Little Mermaid sets, you can dive straight into fun – reenacting Ariel’s grotto discoveries, role-play as cheeky Sebastian or sweet Flounder or face off against Ursula in her ominous lair, if you’re feeling brave…
Cinderella & Prince Charming
Whether children love the main character energy or are charmed by the plucky mice, these sets allow mini makers to build the royal carriage, recreate the ballroom scene and keep an eye on that glass slipper.
Moana, Maui & Friends
Arguably one of the most loveable duos, Moana and Maui come to life in sets that are made for kids who dream beyond the horizon. Little ones will love sailing into adventure with adorable Pua the pig and Heihei the hilarious rooster to keep them company.
When kids say, “we need to build a snowman”, LEGO minifigures hold the key, come rain, shine or snow. Frozen fans can join in on icy tales featuring favorites from Frozen – Olaf, Kristoff and Sven. As well as friends from Frozen II – Bruni, the Nokk and even the Earth Giant. Recreate magical movie moments from Elsa’s Ice Palace to Anna’s sleigh rides. The bonus? The sparkle factor is high.
