As important as milk
Lego for me, as I am sure for everyone my age, was a way to escape the humdrum world, and explore my own creativity. Growing up with Lego is as important as growing up with milk. One does the body good and the other does the mind good. The settings and adventures you could experience with Lego were only limited by your own imagination. Lego was fun by yourself on a rainy day or to play with friends and siblings as you would compete over creative masterpieces. I'm sure Lego aided in the career I pursue today.

Developing my imagination
Lego was always there to keep us occupied - before everything was a kitset. It was a way of developing my imagination skills as well as construction principles. These small blocks and bricks are icons - everyone knows Lego. I wish I could say I was an architect and I used the building principles every day. But I do think that as an early childhood influence it developed creativity and an ability to understand basic design principles which are still used today. An example in daily life is when building brick BBQ and walls at home you know to overlap the blocks to create strength in the structure.

Its simplicity inspires
Lego never dies. Isn't it the simplest and and yet the most complicated toy we have ever seen? Its limitless combination capacity inspired me then and its simplicity inspires me now. Thank you Lego, for being there for such a long time.

The creativity they inspire
I could not have grown up to be the person I am today without LEGO. The creativity they inspire, their simplicity - yet the way that you can build complex things with them, the fact that they are not gender-specific... wonderful!

Puts parents and kids where they belong.
The small bricks that inspired a worldwide love affair. Lego puts parents and kids where they belong. On the floor. Together, hunched over an embattled castle, heads almost touching. Intimate? You bet.
