Children face the same mental challenges when building Lego models as adults do when putting flat-pack furniture together, British research reveals.
A study at the East Midlands University of Derby looked at the way children built a series of models using Lego bricks.
The older the child, the
quicker they completed a model-making task, the university said.
The research found children were challenged by the same aspects as adults in the flat-pack furniture study.
