Have these shapes handy: Arch brick, Roof slope.

A little before you begin

The arch is a small opening. Check a toy’s size before planning a journey through it.

Count studs to check gaps and overhangs. New pieces keep their colour; earlier pieces look lighter. Before you build →

A LITTLE PREPARATION

Gather your pieces

Match the shapes and quantities. The pictures show our colours. Colour names in the steps refer to the pictures; keep useful contrasts, such as a light belly against a dark body.
