LEGO is a popular toy brand that was created by a Danish carpenter named Ole Kirk Christiansen in 1932. The name “LEGO” comes from the Danish words “leg godt,” which means “play well.” In the beginning, LEGO made wooden toys like yo-yos and building blocks. Then, in 1949, they introduced their first plastic building bricks that could interlock with each other. These bricks were special because they had little studs and tubes that allowed them to connect in different ways. The clutch power of LEGO bricks means that they can stick together tightly but can also be easily separated. Throughout the years, LEGO has added many different themes to their products, such as space, cities, castles, pirates, and more. People of all ages love to build and create with LEGO bricks because they can use their imagination and have fun.
