Christmas is just around the corner, and if you’ve got a LEGO fan in your life, it can be tricky. So, we’ve highlighted all the best LEGO Star Wars sets to gift to your kids and where you can buy each of them. 

The LEGO Star Wars collection is popular among all LEGO builders, no matter their age. We have already listed the best LEGO Star Wars gifts for adults aged 18 and up, but what about the younger ones? Surely they should be allowed to join in the fun. So, while you are clicking together the bricks of your adults-only LEGO Star Wars set, why not keep the kids preoccupied with these kits? 

For this list, we considered the immersive building and fun-to-play-with experiences offered by each set. We also took into account the number of bricks in each kit. Why? Well, the more, the merrier. But really, it will keep them preoccupied for longer. 

We also looked at sets that are reminiscent of those designed for adults. For example, while you build your AT-AT, your child can build a model smaller in scale.  In addition, we divided the sets by age. There is something for kids of all ages. So, let’s get into them.

1. Best LEGO Star Wars gifts for ages 10 and up
