Krista Ramsey's Column

I read Locking into the Magic of Legos by Krista Ramsey. This column expresses how legos are so vital whilst childhood takes place, as legos serve as a creative outlet for kids [and an escape for the parents]. Some parents are even willing to pay hundreds of dollars to give extensive collections of legos to children - a vast amount of creativity thus warranted, and intellectual benefits to the mind of the child. This allows imagination to thrive and grow, along with shaping the interests of the kids and furthermore, possible careers.

Krista's writing style was very story-teller-like, such as where she says, "Then feet will pad up the basement stairs to show parents what's been created. And they'll pad right back down to tear it apart and move on to freestyle." in the column. She also has good diction; formal enough to express professionalism and simple enough to understand.
