Playing with LEGOs

(more thoughts inspired from Jonah Goldberg's Liberal Fascism)

I love to observe the creations my children make with LEGOs. Goldberg writes about a Seattle progressive child-care center that banned LEGOs, because they said "the children were building their assumptions about ownership and the social powere it conveys - assumptions that mirrored those of a capitalist society - a society that we teachers believe to be unjust and oppressive." The teachers instead created a playtime that reflected the morally superior standards of "collectivity." I guarantee you that is not what children naturally do in LEGOs play.
