We have previously talked about how a toy without instructions designed by Cas Holman. It challenges different clichés related to the sphere of childhood and the toy world in general and lets a child re-imagine their own toy. Today we are writing about one such wonder, a playground made with imagination and the big blue blocks
Imagination is the beginning of creation. You imagine what you desire, you want what you imagine, and at last, you create what you want.
– George Bernard Shaw
We are today writing about a product design that teaches the Language of THINGS in a Six Bricks construction toy design.
Children must master the Language of THINGS, before they master the Language of WORDS
Friedrich Froebel
Have you ever wondered how many ways can you combine 6 Lego bricks?
There are 915,103,765 ways to combine six, eight-stud LEGO bricks. Yes that is a huge number and that very number is possible ways of being creative. Lego has essentially taken the concrete block, the building block of the world and made it into the building block of our imagination. (Previously, we have talked about SumBlocks, which is open ended blocks used for learning basic arithmetic).
