I Like Legos!

Red Legos,
Green Legos,
Blue Legos,
White Legos,
Any kind of Lego,
I like Legos!

Legos that roll,
Legos that race,
I like Legos all over the place.

Technics are my favorite.
Lego guys are too.
Axles, motors, wheels and ramps,
Next summer I’ll go to Lego camp.

Big Legos,
Tiny Legos,
Long Legos,
Short Legos,
Fat Legos,
Thin Legos,
I like Legos!

This was a poem we wrote together when Ben was 7, after years of playing with all sorts of Lego bricks and toys. We patterned it after a sweet book called I Like Bugs written by Margaret Wise Brown.
