With the reopening of land borders between Singapore and Malaysia, seize the chance to travel to Legoland Malaysia Resort in Johor Baru with your kids.

The theme park's first vehicle-and racing-themed festival, Build The Thrills, is taking place till June 26.

Look out for the Lego Ferrari 512 M model, a scaled-down version of the supercar that comprises 78,496 bricks.

Its favourite attraction, Driving School, now features a wider variety of vehicles safe for children to operate.

Go on a hunt and find unique Lego vehicles throughout the park to redeem a gift.

Do not forget to drop by the Pit Stop Building, where you can build your racing car or stunt vehicle and put it to the test.

There are also meet-and-greet sessions with Lego racers - the Technical Builder, the Speed Champion and the City Racer. The stars of Lego Friends of Heartlake City will also be performing in racing outfits.

You can stand a chance to win prizes from its daily lucky draw. Every Friday to Sunday, winners get the thrill of standing on a podium during the prize-giving ceremony.
