LEGOLAND Discovery Center New Jersey just leveled up, and my son and I got a sneak peek at all five brand-new play zones.

A towering LEGO tree waiting for our own creations, a hero zone for dodging lasers and playing superhero, a build station for designing cars and clearing obstacles, a Duplo park for the littlest builders, and a creative club where the team turns your drawings into actual LEGO pieces. We made our way through every single one, and my son didn't want to leave.

A brick-tastic afternoon if there ever was one. Follow along for the day-to-day on Instagram @roopsi_bansal.
