I grew up with a HUGE table in the basement covered with thousands of Lego blocks. From creating towns to building fancy houses, cars, robots, I could play with Legos for hours and days on end.
And so, it was with great sadness that I read today that Lego Group is laying off thousands of workers in an effort to remain competitive. I hope they recover and rebuild! Read article here.
I never had legos. I was a girl in the 1960’s and pennies for toys were a little scarce. But I love legos. I was sad that my daughter didn’t share my fondness for them. I kept buying duplos and legos and she wanted to play with other toys. Sigh…
I also love play dough, except for the fact that it makes your hands smell funky.
That is so wrong. I love legos, I still have them. I can’t wait to pass them off to my won children. If I have any.
Even Lego Land closed.
