LEGO 60326 Picnic in the park 

LEGO Audio & Braille Building Instructions for the LEGO City set "Picnic in the Park".
Pack your bike trailer with tasty treats and head out for a cozy picnic in the park. The gardener has arrived in his three-wheeled truck packed with tools and colorful flowers, and 2 cute squirrels are hopping around in a tree that shades a sturdy picnic bench. It’s the perfect place to eat lunch! Unpack your pizza and drinks, lay the table and settle down for the best picnic ever.
The box cover shows a jolly picnic scene in a peaceful green park with lots of trees in front of the LEGO City skyline. It looks like it's going to be a summer picnic! On the left, the gardener's maintenance truck is parked; it is orange, green and white and equipped with a pitchfork and a flower bed that is to be planted. The gardener is holding the shovel, ready to dig a hole for the new flowers. The picnic bench is shown in the middle of the scene on the box cover. The cyclist is busy setting up a lovely picnic; there's even pizza! A black squirrel is sitting on the bench, munching on some acorns. The little boy is standing next to the bench at the front, sipping his drink. The bench is shaded by a huge oak tree which is home to another squirrel. There are even some acorns in the tree, ready to be collected! To the right of the picnic bench, the bright yellow bike with trailer is parked, and two bike helmets are waiting for the next ride.
Open the box. This can be tricky; ask someone to help you!
The box contains 2 booklets with visual building instructions, 2 plastic bags with numbers printed on them, and one sticker sheet. Ask a sighted person to help you find the correct bag!
Carefully open bag number 1 and the small sub-bags in it. This bag contains all bricks and pieces for the gardener Minifigure, the cyclist Minifigure, the bike with trailer, and the three-wheeled truck.
Before you start building, ask a sighted person to help you sort the pieces by color. This makes finding the correct pieces even easier!
First, we will build the gardener Minifigure.
The pieces for the gardener Minifigure and for the cyclist Minifigure have identical shapes. They can only be differentiated by their prints, and sometimes by color. If you are unsure about the correct pieces, ask a sighted person to help you.
Collect the following 2 pieces:
1 pale ocher yellow and bright yellow upper part of the body,
and 1 mossy green pair of legs.
Put the upper body on the legs.
Collect the following 2 pieces:
1 bright yellow head,
and 1 mossy green billed cap.
Put the head on the body.
Put the billed cap on the head.
Find 1 dark azure blue bike helmet.
You can swap the billed cap for the bike helmet whenever the gardener is going for a bike ride.
The gardener Minifigure is finished! Well done! He is wearing mossy green pants and a beige shirt with two breast pockets and a mossy green collar. The shirt is tucked in loosely; as a gardener, you need a wide range of motion! The gardener has a very friendly face with grey eyebrows and a few wrinkles. The fine weather and the beautiful flowers put a big smile on his face!
Next, we will build the cyclist Minifigure.
Collect the following 2 pieces:
1 baby blue and bright yellow upper part of the body,
and 1 baby blue pair of legs.
Put the upper body on the legs.
Collect the following 2 pieces:
1 bright yellow head,
and 1 dark brown hairpiece with long hair and side parting.
Put the head on the body.
Put the hair on top. One strand of hair is falling over the shoulder towards the front of the upper body.
Find 1 purple violet bike helmet.
Whenever the cyclist is going for a ride, make sure to exchange the hairpiece with the bike helmet. Safety first!
The cyclist Minifigure is finished! Great job! She is wearing a light blue pantsuit and a white blouse with pink flowers, and a cute pink belt with a small bow tie. The jacket of the suit has two bright blue pockets and a bright blue collar. She has brown eyes and is wearing a pinkish lipstick. The cyclist also has a big smile on her face. But who wouldn't have when a lovely picnic is waiting on such a fine summer's day!
Next, we will build the bike with trailer.
Let's start with the trailer.
