Throwback Thursday: I Followed My Heart

Humashankar VJ

Today, we're celebrating “Alphabet Magnet Day!”  the creative and playful way that alphabet magnets have helped us learn and communicate. But that's not all - we also want to hear from you!

Share a throwback moment when you came up with a creative solution to a problem or found a new use for something ordinary. What inspired you?

Maybe you used alphabet magnets to teach your kids the alphabet in a fun and interactive way. Or possibly you used them to create a motivational message on your fridge. Whatever it was, we want to hear about it!

Or, share a time when you used a creative idea to learn something new.

Did you use art to learn science, music to understand math, or build a LEGO model to grasp a programming concept?

We want to celebrate your innovative thinking and creativity!

Let's come together to celebrate the power of creativity and learning on this Alphabet Magnet Day.

Share your stories, inspire others, and let's keep the creativity flowing!

It was the comment about the Lego model that reminded me of this; the Lego retrospective.

I had managed to get the whole team to come into the office on the same day, and I wanted to do something fun rather than the usual video call retro.  So I filled up my backpack with as much of my daughter's Lego bricks as I could carry and when the retro started I just poured the Lego bricks over the table and said "Build a model to show how the last sprint went, you must use all the pieces ..."

It was monstrous, but they had fun, especially when they were allowed to play with the Lego for the in office social event that evening.  Unfortunately all the photos were taken on a work phone and I never got round to copying them when I left the company.
