On Saturday, November 7th at the Bay Area Science Festival, we helped families build the largest SF Giants LEGO Logo Ever Built at AT&T Park…that we are aware of. The SF Giants LEGO Logo was 7.5 Ft tall and made up of over 11,000 LEGO Bricks. It took approximately 6.5 hours to build and over 400 families participated in the build. Check out some of the pictures and video of the build below.
You can see the beginning of the sign in the bottom right hand corner. We started at 9:30 AM.
People were quite excited to visit our booth, as they got to play with LEGO motorized projects, as well as build the SF Giants LEGO Sign.
We have started to make progress, but we got a long way to go.
Even the President of Play-Well came out to help, as we knew over 18,000 people would show up for the Bay Area Science Festival. Great turnout!
Some of the San Francisco Giants employees even came out to build. We asked each of them if they had ever seen a SF Giants LEGO sign that big before, and they all said they had not.
Even The Special from the LEGO movie was welcome families to our booth. Play-Well, Everything is Awesome, and Love are the messages on this conveyor belt.
Steady progress is being made. Time to start stepping on stools.
A lot more progress has been made, especially around the bottom. This kids can build fast.
We are making sure to get every nook and cranny. No space will be missed.
This father put both of his sons on his shoulders in order to finish the middle of the sign.
When you can’t reach, time to get on the shoulders. This became more of a common practice after awhile.
A larger and larger crowd build around the Giants LEGO logo throughout the day.
Many a Giants fan came out to help out.
We are close to finishing the S and F in the LEGO sign.
Even the little ones helped out way up top.
Not sure what we love more. The child at the very top or that awesome SF Giants jacket.
We were very excited that we could be part of one of the first ever STEAM Carnivals.
We had Play-Well staff help out with the last part of the sign, as it was too tall at that point for many kids to reach.

Crowds came for the sign, but stayed to play with many of our LEGO Engineering Motorized projects.
Even a 2 year old can make a different in helping us to finish this SF Giants LEGO Logo.
Even some Junior Giants came out to help us build this SF Giants LEGO Logo.
So close to being finished.
Final touches.
It’s finally complete. Over 11,000 LEGO Bricks and build in just over 6.5 hours.
We think it came out great.
Over 400 families helped us add a few pieces each to this SF Giants LEGO logo.
We could not have accomplished this or even had the opportunity to make this without the support of the Bay Area Science Festival. Thanks for having us and being open to the idea.
We hope every family appreciated being a part of this huge LEGO build. We hope to do it again soon.
Here is the Play-Well crew that helped make this a reality. Great job!
The SF Giants LEGO Logo is currently being displayed at our engineering educational center, Play-Well Marin.
