All the building collection themes are under LEGO.

by Mark Gini

Long before the introduction of Lego, parents have searched for a toy or game which would both keep children engaged while building a healthy brain development. Although other toys, like chess and draft, met that need, none could do so, like Lego brick sets. These sets were designed to allow kids to recreate their favourite items, movies, and so on. It also helps improve their problem-solving skills, making them fast thinkers and controlled under pressure. Lego knew that not all sets would meet the interest of each customer. And that though one set kept this builder engaged, it wouldn't work for the other.
