Children  may easily become comfortable with Lego Braille bricks since they are shaped and sized similarly to regular Lego bricks. The Braille alphabet is represented by each brick, each brick is imprinted with braille characters so kids can feel and identify the letters with their hands. Children can construct words and sentences with the bricks showing that they are learning from the LEGO bricks, this approach makes learning fun and engaging to a child. The LEGO bricks can also be  meant to be inclusive allowing children to learn and play together as a team. The LEGO bricks have been a great way to teach braille and promoting equal learning rights for everyone. Children with visual impairments can learn braille in an engaging and exiting approach with the use of LEGO braille Bricks, a creative and educational tool.
