LEGO Braille Bricks are here! APH is excited to be an official partner, responsible for distributing LEGO® Braille Bricks to students in the United States.

The bright colored bricks, molded with studs that correspond to numbers and letters in the braille alphabet, allow students who are blind, and sighted to play and learn together. 

On today's episode of Change Makers, we hear from the LEGO Foundation about their philosophy of learning through play, and why they created LEGO Braille Bricks. We'll also hear from a teacher with Visually Impaired Preschool Services(VIPS) in Louisville, KY who is helping APH look for ways to best use the bricks in the classroom.
