Why People love LEGO

Do you guys remember the famous construction toy LEGO? We all loved them since we were a child. You may be a girl or a boy, you still go crazy about these plastic bricks.

It's amazing how people don't outgrow their love for Lego, and what is interesting about it nowadays, is that they are now collected. It comes with different sets, with different kinds of themes such as Star Wars, Harry Potter, Robots, Vikings and Pirates.

Yes, these are just toys with different colors such as Red, Blue, White and Yellow but I have witnessed how people are interested with Lego.

I have been thinking of why people don't outgrow their love for Lego and these are the reasons I have thought of:

1. It makes you creative.
    With different pieces, Lego can tickle your imaginative minds and make you create anything you want. It may be simple houses, buildings, or jets, Lego gives you the chance to show your creativity.

2. It helps you relax.
   At the end of the day, these toys can make you forget of the tiring day you had in school, or at work. With the pieces you link together, it relieves stress because you focus your mind on creating something nice than totally lingering on the stress you had that day.

3. It makes adults feel like a child again.
    Basically, Lego is a toy, but adults enjoy playing with these toys and it makes them happy. The happiness they get from the things that they create makes them forget the idea that old people should no play with toys anymore.

4. It gives you a sense of freedom.
 When you design your own building or house, it gives you the right to do anything with it. You have the right to design it in your own way.With it, you feel free to do everything you want.

5. It's fun to play with.
   People find it fun to play with Lego because you can create anything you want. Your imagination lies in your hands. It gives people a physical version of their concrete ideas.

6. You can have a new toy everyday.
   The colorful bricks can be disassembled at the end of the day, thus making you create a new toy the next time you play with it again. As long as you have a creative mind, you can have new toys everyday.

7. You become proud of what you build.
   You have your own idea and when it already has come to life, it makes you feel proud of what you created. Simple achievements can also count. :)

Because of the reasons I stated on why people love Lego, I still believe that there is a child within each one of us. :)

'Til the next post,

Fawn
