This weekend we had a lego day at work. Just as with last year’s event, the company brought in tons of lego for kids to play and build with.

In addition to the large amounts of regular lego, we also got to play around with Mindstorm robots. One of the competitions was to see how close you could get to a lego man without toppling him.

Another challenge involved a lot of programming to get the robot to complete a series of tasks.

As usual, the creativity displayed by the kids was mind-blowing.
