Ticket Giveaway to LEGO KidsFest in Cleveland!

My son couldn't have been more excited when a LEGO KidsFest flyer arrived in our mailbox! And I couldn't have been more thrilled for him then when I was invited to attend! :) My son has spent many hours upon hours building LEGO creations and I'm pretty sure he's going to be in a little piece of heaven at LEGO KidsFest! 
Unfortunately, LEGO KidsFest is not coming to Pittsburgh this year, but it will be in Cleveland. This is just over 2 hours from Pittsburgh and from the looks of it, I think it will definitely be worth the drive!! 
The LEGO KidsFest is a traveling LEGO extravaganza featuring millions of LEGO bricks and dozens of hands-on, educational, and fun building activities for all ages. It features dozens of life-sized LEGO models and displays, LEGO building areas, the Big Brick Pile, race ramps and more, all covering more than three acres of space.
