My friend, Linda, who we meet with weekly for our little co-op, had a wonderful Lego lesson prepared for us last week to teach the kids some of the differences between a communist society and a democratic society. It was such a great idea that I had to share with you all! First, we gave Legos to the kids and told them to build their own house, whatever they wanted it to look like. We gave them 10-15 minutes to complete their homes. We told the kids that we were living in a democratic ... Read More about Lego History Lesson: Communism/Democracy
