Blog 4: Why I'm Still Playing with Bricks

-

Let's be honest, LEGOs aren't just for kids. Sure, they're a fantastic toy that can spark imagination and creativity, but they're also a powerful tool for adults seeking stress relief. They're a creative outlet for me, or even a way to reconnect with my inner child. The simple act of snapping those colorful bricks together can be incredibly therapeutic. Plus, the sense of accomplishment you feel after completing a complex build is truly rewarding.

But LEGOs are more than just a fun pastime; they're a valuable learning tool for all ages. They encourage problem-solving to fine motor skills. Whether you're following instructions to build a detailed replica of the Eiffel Tower or free building your own fantastical creation, you're constantly engaging your brain and developing essential skills. Also, with the wide range of LEGO sets available, from Star Wars and Harry Potter to architecture and art, there's something for everyone to enjoy.

You might be surprised at how much joy and satisfaction you find in those little plastic bricks. They're not just toys, they're a gateway to creativity, learning, and a whole lot of fun. Embrace your inner builder (and child) and see what you can create!

Polaroid cameras bring back the charm of instant, tangible photos. Instead of scrolling through thousands of pictures on a screen, you get to hold a physical print just seconds after snapping the shot. Polaroids make each photo feel special, offering the unmatched feeling of holding a memory in your hands. Polaroids also invite us to slow down and be intentional. With limited film and no delete button, each shot counts. It’s a refreshing change from digital photography.

I'm no Van Gogh, but there's something super therapeutic about slapping some color onto a canvas and seeing what happens. Music is always a must while painting, it helps get the vibes right!
