“I love building sets with your instructions. It is such a thrill to build something independently. I would like people with visual problems to know that they can have fun and be filled with satisfaction by building something with their own hands, even without seeing.”

“As a blind child, I never thought I’d be able to build a LEGO set. Thanks to Bricks for the Blind, I can enjoy building LEGO sets as an adult, which has been rewarding in so many ways! I have become more confident in spatial concepts, learned about car engines, experienced scenes from some of my favorite movies, and felt a huge sense of accomplishment and independence. I also build with my sighted child, which gives us an activity that we can enjoy together, without my blindness being a barrier.“

“I love building LEGO sets. As an adult, this is the first time ever that I have independently been able to complete LEGO sets as a blind builder. I love building to relax as well as the satisfaction I get – particularly when I have finished a large / complex build.”
