Happy Birthday Lego

I love Legos also. Nice review of the NXT. I am surprised you never reviewed the First Lego League. There youngsters 8 to 14 create teams and build robots out of Legos to compete in a table competition, give a project presentation to a panel of judges, give a technical presentation to a panel of judges and are judged on team work. There are local qualifying tournaments, state tournaments and an international tournament in Atlanta.
