What Matters Most to Parents for Their Children: And The Importance of LEGO®.

As parents, there are endless things that we want for our children – academic success, good manners, strong values, athletic ability, and more.  However when it comes down to the most important things, the list becomes much smaller and simpler.  What matters most to parents for their children? Happiness, success, and good social skills.

LEGO®: A Tool for Children’s Happiness. 💁

One tool that parents can use to help their children develop these vital skills is LEGO® Workshops. For decades, LEGO® has been a beloved toy around the world – and for good reason.  Not only is it a FUN way for children to pass the time, but it also offers a variety of benefits that lend themselves to positive outcomes, the outcomes parents are seeking for their kids most!

LEGO®: A Tool for Children’s Socialisation. 🤝

Of course, good social skills are also crucial for succcess and happiness in life.  Kids who can work collaboratively, communicate effectively, and show empathy towards others tend to do well in school and beyond. 👫  This is where LEGO® comes in yet again. According to renowned expert on socialisation for kids, Dr. Sandra Russ, “LEGO® can help children develop these social skills through group play, problem-solving, and imaginative storytelling.”

LEGO®: A Tool for Children’s Success. 

Another aspect of what matters most to parents for their children is success.  While success can come in many forms, academic achievement is often important for parents.  The good news is the LEGO® can help with this too, by encouraging spatial reasoning, creativity, and critical thinking.
