The Cult Phenomenon: LEGO® Mind Storms
Through the years, Ole Kirk Christiansen’s small LEGO® company has erupted into a cult classic, capturing the hearts of everyone, both young and old with the LEGO® company’s themed play sets that nobody seems to tire from. But times are indeed changing and so are Mr. Christiansen’s fine creations, from its humble roots back in Billund, Denmark, the LEGO® company has evolved into a total toy empire, once again being a cult favorite through one of its latest and most challenging creation, the LEGO® Mind Storms.
Intrigued? Read on. The LEGO® Mind Storms play kits are actually more geared towards enhancing your technical skills and enabling you to stretch your imagination far off from its parameters.
Through the LEGO® Mind Storms building line, kids and kids-at-heart can both actually create cutting-edge figures that come move, more like designing, creating and programming your very own robots, through the LEGO® Mind Storms’ play systems. This innovation has actually been able to create a huge following, spawning all sorts of fanatical internet sites as well as books and software programs promising users to be able to make the most out of their LEGO® Mind Storms play kits.
In the meantime, the kind people at the LEGO® Company actually came up with the LEGO® Mind Storms center which generally caters to kids who are absolutely enamored by this mind-bending, extremely technical toy. Parents actually encourage their children to take part in this mind enriching activity wherein not only will their children be able to play with their favorite LEGO® Mind Storms, their kids are sure to be able to enhance their analytical skills and building techniques while polishing their social skills since the LEGO® Mind Storms center highly encourages the participating children to also work in groups in order to establish friendships and camaraderie.
LEGO® Mind Storms center facilitators will actually be there to look over the children as they work on designing, programming and testing their specific LEGO® Mind Storms play figures.
In the LEGO® Mind Storms center, the participating children are actually highly-encouraged to pair themselves up before they start working on their specific LEGO® Mind Storms projects. Through the parings, the LEGO® Mind Storms facilitators hopes to achieve, team work and an improvement on the children’s communication skills, honing their problem solving as well as engineering skills, being able to get the children to think more analytically and more out of the box since possibilities are limitless when it comes to LEGO® Mind Storms.
The LEGO® Mind Storm center always try to cater to the children’s general interests in order to get them to participate actively in the LEGO® Mind Storm programs as well as be able to get their creative juices flowing (obviously, having short attention spans, the children’s interest must be well attended to so that their attention would not start slipping away from the Logo Mind Storms’ facilitators).
The LEGO® Mind Storm facilitators actually make it a point that the children’s LEGO® Mind Storms activities are theme based in order for them to be able to help the child spark up his or her imagination, as well as have the LEGO® Mind Storms play kit pieces be of a measurable size, precise yet still very much open-ended so that the children from the LEGO® Mind Storms center can actually still be able to hype do whatever it is that their imaginations come up with.
