ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

lego

LEGO is a Danish company that invented tiny plastic blocks which snap together to make bigger things. LEGO means "Leg Godt", which is Danish for "Play Well". People use LEGO blocks to build models, play games, or have competitions to who can build the most interesting creation! You can use your imagination to create anything you want - castles, robots, cars, animals - anything! You just have to be careful not to step on them, because they hurt when you do!
