For more than 60 years, Lego(乐高)bricks have sparked children’s imaginations. Now, a new version of these toys is in the works. They're called Lego Braille Bricks.
Lego Braille Bricks are designed to help people learn Braille. That’s a system of writing in which letters are represented by raised dots(凸起的点). Blind people(盲人)use their fingertips to read them. According to the World Health Organization, 36 million people worldwide are blind. In the United States, however, only ten percent of blind children learn Braille. Lego Braille Bricks can help change that. The small knobs on the bricks are arranged as Braille letters. Blind children can use these knobs to learn Braille. Lego plans to launch Braille bricks next year. For some schools, kits(成套工具) will be free. Each kit will contain about250 bricks. Along with the alphabet(字母表) the bricks will feature numbers and math symbols.
The Danish Association of the Blind first came up with the idea of using Lego bricks to teach Braille. In 2011, the group shared the idea with the Lego Foundation. Thorkild Olesen is the president of the group. Olesen is blind. He says many teachers don’t have the tools and skills to help kids learn Braille. So they teach with audio tools, such as audio books.
"Like any other people, we need to express ourselves in writing," Olesen said. “Audio is great. But it can never replace Braille. Braille is the single most important tool for us in order to learn to spell correctly and write.
