DC have the most wonderful imaginations where they can transport themselves into any world they wish to build. So what would your DC do if ‘NO’ didn’t exist for a day? Would they run around town fighting ‘crime’? Go exploring in the woods to discover new animals? Or would they make all meals contain ice cream? Wherever you think your DCs imagination will take them, please share below for a chance to win a £300 Love2Shop voucher.

Here’s what LEGO Juniors has to say: “For both parents and children, the age of 4 is a time in life where NO is used a lot! This is where LEGO Juniors comes into play.

Endless sleepovers I suspect! And a trip to Disneyland.

Elliepurpleflower · 13/03/2017 16:14

I just asked dd1 - she said she would eat sweets and play at soft play - easily pleased!

voyager50 · 13/03/2017 16:59

On a good day he would spend the whole day drawing, designing and making things or a bad day sadly he would choose to play games on the computer for hours!

jollyjester · 13/03/2017 21:56

If No didn't exist, DD informed me she would eat ice cream for breakfast, the go to the museum to see the dinasours, a cafe for lunch and then to the zoo. She would have pizza and spaghetti for dinner and then sleep in a hotel so it was like being on holiday.

Very little punctuation as DD forgets to breathe sometimes!!Grin

Belmo · 13/03/2017 23:06

Hate to say it, but I expect mine would spend the whole day playing Pokémon on her ds, with short breaks to shovel in sweets...

EsmeeMerlin · 13/03/2017 23:08

My ds would play on his dad's playstation, he loves it but is only allowed to play it with his dad on a saturday for an hour. He would love some free rein on lego star wars.
He would also eat pizza(his favourite meal) and no doubt cake(another favourite)
He also loves the park so would no doubt spend hours there jumping in muddy puddles.

vickyors · 14/03/2017 16:06

If my two girls had free reign for a day, everything in the cupboards would be out. Jigsaws out of boxes, dressing up everywhere. My toddler would have broken all the crockery in an attempt to stack things; my four year old would be wearing every item in her wardrobe, and then building dens to 'be an engineer', while wearing a Little Mermaid dress. Oh, and they'd both be smeared in food.

funkypyjamas · 14/03/2017 19:39

Each meal would be at least 6 courses.
There would be an episode of Peter Rabbit between each change of activity to give him the chance to rest for 10 minutes.
We'd go to the beach and wouldn't be able to leave until we'd thrown ALL the stones in the sea...and there would still be time to ride bikes and go to the park.
Toothpaste would be replaced with hummus.

greenclip · 15/03/2017 09:54

Free rein for the day? I think my DS is in control of our plans most weekends....

However, if he fully had control, I suspect he would 1) eat a lot more cake 2) scoot faster and wilder 3) perform perilous gymnastics on the climbing frame 4) watch much more TV 5) sleep cuddling mummy.

FeelingSmurfy · 15/03/2017 20:46

Probably spend the whole day asking me questions that I would normally say no to, and laugh at me having to say yes not realising that I am winning because they aren't actually doing anything other than ask questions

Eat lots of junk, jump on the furniture and throw up Envy

I think that they would be pretty easily pleased, that's why I try to think up activities for them that they will enjoy and get tickets for birthday presents etc, we do lots of free fun stuff too and they input more in to that

Legoland would be a huge treat for me them, and i they would love the themed hotel Grin

Teatowelfairy · 16/03/2017 12:53

My DD would have birthday, christmas and easter rolled into one day. She would start with birthday cake for breakfast, followed by jelly and ice cream. Then she would open all her presents and build a castle or maybe an aeroplane out of the boxes and wrapping paper. She would put on her batman t-shirt complete with fairy wings, tutu and wellies then go outside and splash in puddles. We would go to the park and she would run around doing her best fairy batman impression. Back home she would wrap a blanket around herself and pretend to be elsa while singing let it go. Then she'd tip cotton wool all over the floor and pretend they're baby sheep. Later we'd snuggle up and read The gruffalo for a thousand times in a row

theresamustgo · 20/03/2017 22:53

After watching copious amounts of Dan TDM on YouTube, DS would go out to the ice cream parlour and buy a big sorbet. He would head to GAMES shops and Cash Converors and check out what was there. Then off to swimming. Home for Maine craft and then transportation to Japan for a mega city exploration.

Natah · 21/03/2017 16:33

He'd turn our house into a fort, eat sweets non-stop, drive a digger over to nana's house and turn our garden into a field of trampolines!!

ProseccoandPizza · 21/03/2017 16:38

He'd fly to US Legoland as he's desperate to go there after visiting UK Legoland. He really wants to stay in the hotel there and party in the elevator!

Byrdie · 21/03/2017 16:51

I just asked my daughter what she would do if she could do anything. Firsr she said 'everything' and then said (without any knowledge that this was anything at all to do with lego - she can't see the phone screen either) that she would go to Legoland and sleep there.

StillNoFuckingEyeDeer · 21/03/2017 19:02

DD1 would like to go to Legoland. We'd have a picnic breakfast on the train and do drawing. Whilst there she would have a chocolate ice cream. She would stay up late and sleep in my bed.

DD2 would wear her crocodile or monkey costume, possibly with a tutu and welly boots. She would play with her marble run and the Lego (particularly DD1's Lego). She would scoot to the park and get pushed very high on the swings.

DS would like to be given lots of food and be cuddled and tickled all day.

smithsurvey14 · 21/03/2017 21:39

DD (17) would stay in bed all day ordering take aways and watching her tablet, her phone constantly in use.
DS (6) would stay in his onsie eating nothing but sweets and crisps while playing on the wii, covering the floor in toys and Lego then at bedtime crawl into my bed with his tablet and drift off while playing or watching iPlayer.

123julie321 · 22/03/2017 01:05

Oooh chaos! They'd invite all the kids in the neighbourhood into our house (muddy wellies and all), eat ice cream for breakfast, watch the TV on full volume, steal mummy's makeup, draw pictures on the wall, build Lego towers up to the ceiling...and leave it all for mummy to clean up!

pixiedusk · 22/03/2017 12:01

Would eat the whole jar of Nutella, scatter the toys all over the place with the TV open as a background noise and then play his DS in between. Outside he would definitely ask to play on the mud on the beach near us. He always ask if he can roll over the muddy beach but I always say no. So on a day with no NO! he would defintely run there and have a mud bath or something =P

Andbabymakesthree · 22/03/2017 12:14

My children would spend the day at Disneyland eating whatever they fancied and going on all the rides with Mummy and Daddy. The adventures for continue with blasting off into space and meeting aliens.

RockingDuck · 22/03/2017 12:34

Mine would swim ALL DAY so probably would be near a sandy beach; all-you-can-eat hotdogs and ice cream for lunch, have some sort of donkey-ride-race, then head off to a theme park in the evening for rollercoasters in the dark, candy floss, burgers and chips, more ice cream and doughnuts.

Gerjuice · 23/03/2017 10:43

If money was no limitation and they had free reign for a day my kids would charter a helicopter and travel around the country...Lego Land & a wildlife park would be priority, then maybe famous places like Palaces, Castles and a steam railway ride. Food would be ice-cream, pizza and pasta. What fun!

postitnotes · 23/03/2017 17:29

If NO was not uttered, mine would fiddle with everything in the entire house and eat a lot of rubbish, constantly.

sjonlegs · 23/03/2017 19:08

I dread to think ... but as my children are a bit older now- I'm thinking electronics, TV and mobile phones would be high on the list, together with raiding the larder!! I'm not sure any of them would get dressed, or indeed leave the house! They might make a den though ... and I just know that the whole house, as well as their bedrooms would be absolutely trashed ... and not a scrap of washing up would be done ... I'd just hope that they'd flush the toilet and wash their hands!!?*

asuwere · 23/03/2017 19:41

TV would be on at 5am, lots of biscuits would be eaten, all the cushions in the house would be piled up and they would try jumping on them from the top of the bookcase!
Older 2 would probably stay on their tablets ALL day (coz I'm a cruel mum who limits their time even though their friends get to use theirs all day..)
