How did you get started building with LEGO bricks?<\/h4>\n

When I was about four or five years old, my parents bought me a LEGO set. Before then, I loved playing with blocks that were not LEGO bricks. A couple of years later, having saved my allowance, I bought an early version of the LEGO Technic series. I have enjoyed building with LEGO bricks ever since.<\/p>\n

Which project (or projects) are you the most proud of? Why?<\/h4>\n

It is difficult to choose. 😉 More than that, I feel pride and joy when I look at the creations of children inspired by my projects and books.<\/p>\n

Where do you find inspiration for new projects?<\/h4>\n

Suddenly an idea comes into my mind. It happens often when I am walking, when I am relaxing in the bath, or when I am in a comfortable morning doze. I grab hold on to this fleeting idea that is in my head for just a moment.<\/p>\n
