If you have a LEGO lover in the family, Pleygo—a Netflix-like LEGO rental service that lets families borrow or trade different pieces of everyone’s favorite building toy—is the perfect way to keep them satisfied without having to keep running to the toy store. Founded earlier this year by Elina Furman Landaur, a local mom and publisher of the A-List Mom blog, Pleygo seeks to keep play fresh for kiddos while keeping wallets happy. Plus, Pleygo donates 10 percent of their proceeds to Save Our Children, a nonprofit organization that promotes creativity through play. Pleygo memberships start at $15 per month with free shipping. pleygo.com
