Benefits of Lego
Did you know that the name ‘Lego’ is derived from the Danish phrase Lego got which means play well? This company takes their work very seriously. I mean, who doesn’t love playing with blocks?!
The Lego Group began in the workshop of Ole Kirk Christiansen, who found himself to be both an ingenious carpenter and avid builder when he set out on his own. His fascination with objects that could amuse re-usability pushed him forward even further – creating something new from scratch just wasn’t enough anymore! By 1932 his company had expanded towards producing plastic toys before finally coming full circle back around again by 1947 where they are today: still known for being innovative but this time using much more than wood or metal as their materials

3. Develops Problem Solving
Structured play with Lego fosters problem solving concentration and attention to detail. It also helps kids improve balance skills as they build the toy using colors, shapes sizes etc., while following instructions that give them an opportunity for creativity!
4. Aids Mathematical Thinking
As they practice, the children’s minds experience fractions and divisions. They’re able to figure out how small pieces fit together when presented with this problem in math class!
5. Planning Skills
Structured playtime with Lego is the perfect way to teach your child how they can best take on new challenges. Kids will love following instructions, making mistakes, and figuring out ways of overcoming them in order to achieve their final vision! Structured activities like these are an organic process that develops skills such as logical thinking, problem solving ability through trial-and error learning while having fun – it doesn’t get any better than this!
6. Confidence
Lego is a game where there are no rules. It’s up to the players how they want their experience with Legos and Lego sets, whether it’s structured or free play time – this will determine what kind of creations come out at the end! Kids love seeing all that hard work turn into something great in front of them; kids can really take pride when witnessing their own creativity coming alive through creative building blocks
The nice thing about playing around without boundaries always being imposed on you. You get both aesthetic satisfaction from constructing cool-looking objects as well as an opportunity for personal expression by customizing everything inside however YOU wish
