Over at planningwithkids.com there is an excellent guest post from Australia author, Susan Stephenson, on how to use your child's love ofLego to encourage them to read and engage with the written word.
It has a bunch of great ideas worth considering with a whole bunch of links to YouTube videos, Flickr photos, free PDFs and more. This post is definitely going into my creative box.
Susan follows it up with asecond post on Lego and literacy on her own site, The Book Chook. This post has more specific ideas for how to get your child writing and telling their own stories — inspired by Lego.
