Lego Love


I LOVE this Lego ad.  I saw it here in a pretty cool article, "25 things you want your daughter to know".  I was just complaining to one unlucky Lego employee last week (unlucky in having to deal with me that is) about the new Lego's for girls, called Lego Friends.  I told her I didn't like that they had boobs and blow-outs.  She told me, studies showed that girls wanted to play with dolls that they thought were pretty or identified with.  I told her that was exactly my point.  I don't want my three year old identifying with anything more than the sweet, original, flat-chested, pony-tailed Lego women put out in the 80's.  And now that I think of it, that pretty much describes me as well, so maybe I'm just being a hater.
