Legos also harm creativity.
Perfection also harms creativity.
In fact there was a economic theorist who claimed that by introducing limitations in a system you also introduce entrepreneurship and innovation.
- onemoresoop 6y agoLegos? Their innate limitation as simple bricks that can be shaped into many things is what makes them creative in my opinion. Though I suspect what you may be hinting at. If kids have no toys they'd use their imagination more or make their own toys.
- nashashmi 6y agoLegos constrain creativity to simple objects that get stuck together. The creativity is not applicable in the real world and hurts imagination of the world that exists. Yes, what you said. And now after saying all that I realize when comparisons are made of US to developing countries the same harbingers to creativity and innovation appear where if a situation in America can be resolved through a particular means, the lack of such means become an obstacle to the similar rise of developing countries.
- adaml_623 6y agoI would love it if you clarifies your point or found a name for the economic theorist. I will admit that a lego kit with instructions is very different to a collection of lego parts and I would encourage every parent to buy buckets of assorted bits rather than kits that might end up staying on a shelf once assembled
