Julia Goldin My all-time favorite use of creativity ; transforming fear into courage. A perfect reminder from Lego that the best design doesn’t just solve problems, it changes feelings.
Play is powerful!
Julia Goldin Thanks for sharing, my kid was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), with 18 years. You know he became a Lego fan at almost 1 year, and at that time we didn't know he had ASD. What you said about anxiety it is so true, he was building or creating his art with bricks, and he was in peace. Unlikely, in argentina now we cannot find Legos anymore just when we travel if we can. Hope the big bricks can be donate for ASD foundations. Hi from Argentina.
I think you need this for adults as well, Julia. :)
This is so beautiful! I love that lego is building those connections and helping children feel at ease. Love This! 👏
The power of play.
Thank you for sharing this, Julia. My son was honored to partner with this wonderful initiative together with the LEGO Foundation a few years ago. He created a stop-motion video with the MRI LEGO set for the project as part of his school work — helping children not only have fun playing with the set but also enjoy watching an engaging and funny video. Great initiative! ❤️
Makes so much sense. Well done! Hope Legos marketing engine gets the word out to children’s hospitals globally.
love this so much! the LEGO Group is really crushing it these days.

1wJulia Goldin this is great. What I would have done having this available for my kids during all the stresses of hospitals and medical procedures 25 years ago. This will be a gamer changer to Kids and their parents.
