It is forever

[Rachel Adams]

When answering the question "What was your child's favourite hobby?" is this answer correct? "Lego-it is forever." I mean it is his favourite pastime forever . His favourite hobby still.

When answering the question "What was your child's favourite hobby?", is this the following answer correct?

"Lego space here - space here it is forever." (Without the spaces on either side of the dash, it looks like "Lego-it" is the name of a product.)

I mean it is has been his favourite pastime forever for his whole life and it still is.
It is still his favourite hobby. still. This sentence is redundant with my suggested version above.

Note my corrections above.

Your suggested response doesn't work. I would take "Lego - it is forever" to mean that Lego is a product that will always be around. It will never be discontinued.
The shortest answer to the question is "Lego, and it still is".

Would it make sense in other contexts? "My love (for art) - it is forever."

I don't know why you're trying to make a complicated construction using a dash. "My love for art will last forever" is the simplest way to say it. I suspect that the problem is that you're trying to use "forever" to refer to the past but without using a past tense.

You could also say:

My love for art has been lifelong, and I expect it to continue that way.

The question is asking about the past but your answer (forever) is in the future.
