It’s almost here! It’s almost here! We’re talking about Mother’s Day, of course. It’s the time of year that everybody loves because they get to give something special to their mom. The most special thing you can give to your mom is something that you’ve made yourself. We think the best things you can make are all made from Click-A-Bricks, but we also love us some crafts around here. We looked high and low for something amazing to make for Mother’s Day and we came across this easy Mother’s Day...

We love us some cars here at Click-A-Brick! You know what cars are really cool? Police cars! But, if you think all police cars are the same, boy do we have some amazing news for you! They're not.  Police cars come in all shapes and sizes and some of those cars are super fast. We would love to be the lucky cops who get to ride around in these fabulous rides. These are super cars, but they have the lights and sirens of real police cars, which of course makes...

When you think about things you can rent, building blocks don’t immediately come to mind. Like, you don’t pay money just to keep building blocks temporarily and then give them back when you’re done playing with them … right? But, you totally can! It’s the 21st century, after all. Why not rent instead of buy? Let’s face it: certain types of building blocks *cough* Lego *cough* are a little on the pricey side. Like, we’re not saying they’re overly expensive or anything, but sometimes they’re as much as a car...

Do you know what Airborne logos are? In World War II, different military units started identifying themselves with logos. Some of these were even drawn by Walt Disney, who was an ambulance driver in World War I. The Navy asked Disney to draw them a logo for a new ship and soon after, a whole bunch of military units were coming up with their own unique logos.  The logos would be painted on the sides of airplanes and other military vehicles to give a sense of identity to the various...

St. Patrick’s Day is so great. You get to wear green, there are parades, there is much celebrating and you’re five times more likely to catch a leprechaun on St. Patrick’s Day than on any other day throughout the year according to a study done by the International Gold Finders Association and published in Totally Not Made Up Science Weekly. We all know that adults like to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with quiet and dignified reflection about St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland and the man credited with bringing...
