LEGO is not only
fun, it's also educational. Basic LEGO is fun to build, and once you get onto
Techincs and
Mindstorms the interest even for adults is huge. I played with LEGO until I was about 13, then rediscovered it at 16, and again in
1999, at the age of 21. The same year, LEGO won
Toy of the Century.
