I'm gonna have a game/competition and the prize for the gr 4 boys and girls will be lego cars and hello kitty hair accessories.
Back in the day, I would have been thrilled to recieve just an empty crayon box. Now these kids all have hi tech cell phones and shit. will they care about lego/hello kitty? The grade 4 gangstar girls weren't overly amused by my stickers |

| Last time I looked around, Lego sold for a little more than U.S. MSRP in Korea (i.e. it's expensive). Certainly it depends on the kid, but Lego would make for a cool gift. |

There are "Lego Hagwans" for kids here. They teach kids how to make tables and chairs and various animals with Lego.
Seriously. |

I saw one and I was like... There is no way that is a hagwon for legos.
That's awsome. I'm guessing this is for younger kids though. But I'd so totally go even in highschool. |

Yeah, I've seen signs for them, too. I just thought it was Lego English School or something and that they were just ripping off the name.
They have hagwons for everything, robot building, Lego building, you name it. I have one spoiled kindy kid who goes to a showbiz/entertainment hagwon. His mom has convinced him that he's going to be a famous movie star. |

I'd love to see one of those "charm" school hagwons. You know, the princess type ones where they teach you manners and how to be high class. I'd so show them a world they've never seen before.
Might as well throw in victorian dresses and tuxedos to make them look ridiculous and pompous.Westerners, screwing up Asians one thought at a time... |

A number of the forth grade boys in my school are much more interested in covert lego building than learning English.
They also have the cheaper Chinese knock off legos here which the kids don't seem to mind (I however will settle for nothing less than the Danish original) |

Lego is for grade 2 level
third graders would eagerly, ...
fourth graders heading to grade five soon would regress into earlier childhood fun at the drop of the hat
(fifth graders heading into grade six soon would wonder if it's cool first, look around, see what other students thought). |
