LEGO REVIEW
The company of Lego was founded by Ole Kirk Christansen and his grandson Godfred back in 1932.Ole Kirk Christansen was born in April 7, 1871. He married to Kirstine Sorensen and father of Johannes Christiansen, Karl Georg Kirk Christiansen, Godtfred Kirk Christiansen and Gerhardt Kirk Christiansen. He was born in the village of Filskov, located between the towns of Sonder Omme and Give in Central Jutland Denmark.
Ole was devastated when his wife died.But this doesn't stop him from chasing his dreams because he needs to take care of his sons.So he started making wood toys.The wooden toys were in good quality.At the some time his sons helped him with his business and in a blink of and eye,words starting to spread around town and big orders started coming in.But the toys were not going big sales during that time.So he decided to name the toys "Lego" which in danish means "play well". Everythings went well for Ole.His toys were getting attention and gain a lot of profit from it.He decided to build a workshop to increase his toy's quality.He was really happy with his effort because he able to make his sons happy even they have lost their precious mom at an early age.
But things changed when the fire nation attacks.Ole's workshop was caught fire and burned down to ashes.He almost gave up on everything but Ole is not going down too early because he need to support his employees and kids.So he decided to make plastic toys because he thinks that kids might be creative on building a lego.Also kids be able to connect it easily.Ole stop making wooden toys and continue making plastic toys as the sales went up.They started to build more kinds of model and each one of it had to be the highest quality.
Then the rest is history.Thanks to Ole's imagination and hardwork,kids around the world enjoy Lego toys,amusement park,movies and so on.None of this would happen if Ole and his sons given up during hard times
Based on my opinion, the reason Ole's Lego toys went famous because Ole is a type of person who does not give up too easily.For example,he didn't stop when his workshop burned down.He also thinks widely when something doesn't feel right.My evidence is he stop making wooden toys as it can break easily and doesn't last long.On the other hand,plastic toys are long lasting and can be use easily and friendly to use.
Overall,Ole able to bring out his expectation on his invention.He was able to succeed thanks to his sons who were stay by his side no matter what happen.Ole's Lego left a big impact to us that we were able to experience Ole's imagination and creativity on Lego.Nevertheless,we should appreacite what Ole has been create for us and make used of it in our future.Thank you Ole Kirk Christansen for the treasure you've create for us.
