Use of LEGOs

Recently I've sound a site, where it is described, how to use LEGO to teach kids about simple math. You can even learn multiplying and division with those small plastic bricks. How awesome is that?
More to that: this construction toy helps to improve motor functions, imagination, xommunication skills, etc.
It also improves reading skills, as it is crucial to use the instructions.
I believe, that LEGO is a great education tool. And it is great, that teachers throughout the country understand that as well.

I saw the documentary "The Lego Movie" when it came out,
late last year. It was an interesting film, because not only did the creators of this film interview the people who ran the Lego Company (which is in Switzerland somewhere), as well as the workers at the Lego Company, but they showed some absolutely fantastic and creative structures of various sizes, ranging from quite small to larger-than-life-sized models of human beings and animals, as well as panoramic urban landscapes with trains running through them and everything, including prize-winning Lego creations. It was really something.
