LEGO bricks celebrated their 50th anniversary yesterday. It’s amazing that a toy could have such holding power, but then again, LEGO bricks are not your ordinary toy.
When I was growing up in the 70′s and 80′s I don’t believe that there was a toy that I didn’t get bored with besides LEGO bricks. Seriously, what can’t you build with LEGO bricks? BEST toy ever! Happy birthday to my all-time favorite toy!
