Lego - Building Block of a Child Mind

They are the building blocks of the child mind, Sets science of creativity beyond the edge of grind, For a few the ‘minifigures’ are a collector’s item, But for all ages it is a natural creative game, The bricks are the basic cells, colourful and bright, Multitude of shapes they lock together in delight, For the youngest, there are the ‘duplo’s to build, As they grow older, they develop new creative skills, ‘The Juniiors’, ‘The City’, ‘Friends’ and toys humane, Are all ‘Creator’s paradise out of solitary cells, Combinations galore put imagination to rock, Build with a feel from a never-ending stock, There are ‘Fairies’ and ‘Barbies’ for the girls, While the boys traverse though the adventure world, ‘Superheros’ in ‘Invation’ of ‘Starwars’ alight, ‘Castles’, ‘Chima’ and ‘Ninjago’ in future sights, Scriptures needs not be followed, build as per your freewill, A City, a car or even a complete castle atop a hill, Motors, switches, powered devices and robotic ‘mindstorms’, All electronics lock on to an excellent platform, The iconic toys sets their origins to Denmark, Out from the creative mind of Ole Kirk Christiansen’s works, To build a collection is ones childhood dream, To get a gift echoes delights unrestrained screams!

Brilliant, I'm a Lego fan. My dad used to teach my sister and I about brick bonds with ours. We would make many houses to form village's. The simple block inspires creativity.

Thank you Elizabeth. I am also a collector and a great fan of Lego. It all started when my uncle presented me with a set way back in the mid 80s. I am not sure whether my hobby had an influence on me taking up a profession of Architecture.
