LEGO Classic Large Creative Brick Box 10698, 790 pieces, ASIN B00NHQF6MG

Christmas lists start early at a lot of houses, and this is a good one to tuck in the closet. Amazon has the LEGO Classic Large Creative Brick Box (set 10698) for $33.49, down from a $59.99 list price, shipped and sold by Amazon. As of Sunday morning it was in stock. It's 790 bricks in 33 colors, with windows, doors, wheels and two green baseplates, packed in a box that doubles as storage, and it works with any LEGO the kids already have. It's rated for ages 4 and up, so keep the small pieces away from toddlers. One thing to know: without Prime, Amazon's free standard shipping kicks in at $35, so this set alone comes up a hair short. Prices move, so confirm the total in your cart before you check out.
