“Now Everything is Awesome” or: How LEGO Became Socially Inclusive

[@kimberlywilliams8564]

I love your editing and creativity. These videos are so important!

[@justhappentobe]

More coming soon. I promise.

[@NightQueen01]

Agree, the editing was done well. I especially liked the shots with the cut out lyric. Very cute.

[@emmamcclellan8272]

If you do become a parent in the future I'm confident you'll be one pretty cool dad :)

[@justhappentobe]

Thanks, Emma. I hope so.

Dude, that LEGO shit got deep man. I am currently trying to teach my 5 year old niece about the 'structural integrity' thing with LEGOs, and about inclusion for those with disabilities...I suppose I can combine the two.

[@justhappentobe]

Good luck with the lesson. Kids are my favourite type of human; easily malleable, and innocent. Teach her about equality before some ableist teaches her the bad stuff.

[@LadyKnightEllen]

+Just Happen To Be Oh Don't worry, I have a personal vendetta against our society that teaches children to suppress their curiosity and to be afraid of those that are different that they are. And, my niece has already encountered people with disabilities so it's not completely foreign to her.

[@alicepow593]

I really like your metaphor with the interlocked legos, partially because I loved legos when I was younger.

[@doorthings]

Your videos are so nice to watch! A real treat and great food food for thought

[@ChrisPage68]

I used to make Lego wheelchairs. And you're never too old to play with it. That wheelchair's front casters are locked. Rookie mistake! Or are they trying to tell us something?

[@FightinAir]

Yay! you made another video. I'm so happy.

More coming soon, Mariana. I promise.

[@thecatchpoles6269]

Great topic Dan, and wider point. My toddler is fascinated by my wheelchair (Mama's "car") and it was a struggle to find any toys reflecting that. Great to know when she graduates to Lego there's something out there. (Do the wheels go round? A toy wheelchair with wheels that go round is the dream...)

[@resilientgal872]

Just let you know build a bear offers a little wheelchair for a bear and american girl dolls offer the wheelchair as well for when she gets older.

[@BiancaSmalley]

There is also a Robert Munsch book called "zoom" that my kids like reading.

[@thecatchpoles6269]

Oh thanks, wonder if you can get build a bear in the UK... If you had a link that'd be great!

[@thecatchpoles6269]

And I'll look Zoom up - thanks Bianca.

[@mintycrackers9810]

@The Catchpoles , you've probably figured it out by now but you certainly can get build a bear in the UK. Here's a link to the ''Wild Wheels Wheelchair'' www.buildabear.co.uk/wild-wheels-wheelchair/424050.html

[@DeathThemself]

THIS is awesome.

[@eduardomacias901]

THANK YOU FOR DOING THIS

[@sugunyan.9054]

อยากใหุ้ณเล่าอะไรแบบนี้อีก ขอบคุณนะคะ

[@69drummerdude]

BTW Pretty late for lego to join the party: I bought my daughter a playmobil child in a wheelchair over ten years ago....
