Have these shapes handy: Curved brick, Double curved brick, Curved-bottom brick, Roof slope.

A little before you begin

The cap lifts off as one connected piece. The hatchling lifts out after the cap.

The hatchling is included in this guide and parts list. Its horns and head are fixed.

Hold the egg by the lower shell when carrying 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.

WHEN THE BUILDING IS DONE

Now for the little story.

Lift the cap and tell the story of the dragon hatching. Give the hatchling a name and draw the place it will explore. Draw a grown-up dragon beside a paper nest for a family story.
