The Lego company has been producing children's construction sets with the same name for many years. For the first time, this company patented its plastic products back in 1958. The set includes plastic parts different sizes, each of which can be quite easily attached to another part using pins located in its upper part. Over the years, the models of these sets have been improved, and many are interested in the question - what can be made from Lego?
Today, the range of these construction sets is very wide: on store shelves you can often find a variety of additional parts for such a construction set: figures of people, birds, animals, as well as coins, trees and other attributes. In addition, the designers themselves may belong to a specific theme, for example: wizards, pirates, etc. characters and everything that accompanies them. But the most popular model is a city or Lego city.
Before you start making anything from this construction set, you, of course, need to purchase it. A standard set will do. In order to assemble a machine gun, pistol or other weapon, you need to start with small parts. By the way, another advantage of this construction set is that even a one-year-old baby can play with it, because its parts are not so small as to penetrate the child’s respiratory organs. But for the most part, the vast majority of sets are recommended for children aged 5 years and older.
Any Lego comes with instructions for making a particular element (robot, machine, etc.). After reading it carefully, you can special effort and labor to assemble the constructor. The main difference between such instructions is the maximum clear description stages of assembly, and color pictures will make the assembly process clear even to a small child.
With Lego City, the situation is somewhat different: to build it, most likely, you will need more than 1 set, because here you will have to construct buildings and structures, as well as other elements of urban or rural use. This toy will captivate not only children, but also adults!
By the way, for the details of this designer there is 1 more little unusual application, namely, household. For example, such products can become excellent ice cube trays! To do this, simply fill them with water and place them in the freezer, and then use a knife to remove the contents from them. In addition, you can use Lego to make refrigerator magnets, candles, soap molds, or other useful household items.
Now the company is actively producing new kits, with the help of which you can create figures not only from simple parts, but also from gears, chains, various connecting elements and even a programming block.
The company does not forget about its many fans. In this regard, she opened a number of amusement parks, which are somewhat similar to Disneyland, located in Paris. These parks are called Legoland and Legosity. In them, kids and adults can look at unusual buildings, ride on attractions and even create structures and entire cities on their own!
DIY Lego crafts: options
Lego constructors are an exciting educational game that children especially like because of their bright colors And colorful design. But its main advantage is the many various variations assembly of parts. Anyone can collect what they like best: from weapons like a pistol or machine gun, to cars, robots and even buildings!
But before you start assembling the construction set, you need to unpack it and look at the manual - instructions, where the work options will be indicated. This guide is step-by-step, so you won’t have to think long about how to properly assemble this or that structure.
If you have already tried all the assembly options suggested in the instructions, then you can create a special model or design using, for example, video tutorials.
But a situation may arise when you do not have any of the necessary parts, then you will need to purchase 1 more set of the designer. But you can immediately buy Lego Freestyle, thereby supplementing the original construction set with a large number of different parts.
The Lego Technic set is very useful for children's development, but first, the baby should be taught how to fasten the main parts together, and then you can give free rein to his imagination. By the way, this Lego set includes, in addition to the main parts, quite specific ones, for example: motors, gears and chains. Therefore, you need to carefully monitor your small child while he is busy constructing so that he cannot swallow small parts.
Work on complex structures sometimes it takes quite a long time, so if your son or daughter is under 7 years old, it can get boring very quickly. To ensure that the search for the required scheme takes the shortest possible time, you can search on the Internet.
But you need to know that different sets have, accordingly, different sizes. For example, when purchasing Lego Duplo, next time it is better to purchase a construction set from the same series if your plans include expanding the parts. There are also sets for older children, and also for those who like to rack their brains, such as Lego Mindstorms. Here you will find software modules, many small and connecting parts and even electronic sensors, with the help of which you can easily assemble a robot or a car!
