#year-of-the-horse

Because this is the year of the horse, we have to have something different. So, we are doing a chopstick dance. The chopstick dance comes from Mongolia, an area known for its large grassland areas and the historical use of horses.

With those bricks, you and your friends or family will create an eye-catching three-dimensional scene where a Chinese-inspired red and gold scroll unfurls and its four illustrated horses appear to come to life, galloping off the page. (The horses also actually "gallop," thanks to a hand crank.) Nearby, two "minifigures" (aka small people-shaped pieces) watch the scene unfold. One is a festival-goer with black styled hair, and one is wearing a large horse mask and painting miniature scrolls.
