What are Lincoln Logs®?

Although there are many toys that encourage children to explore and grow with building blocks, Legos® and K'Nex®, for example-Logs®, they have the difference that it was designed by architect and toys designer, John Lloyd Wright, son of Frank Lloyd Wright. After the sudden end of his apprenticeship, John Wright turned to the toy design and first focused on the blocks for the construction and cut the birds with a puzzle. Then Lincoln Logs® came.

Wright said that the shape of the Lincoln Logs® reflected an element for the perillion of the earthquake that his father introduced into the Imperial Hotel in Tokyo, which was designed and built from 1907 to 1915. Lincoln Logs®, designed in 1916, was Wright's Business, J. L. Wright Company, 1922. The original sets were made exclusively from wood and doors and windows were created by the absence of protocols, rather than by attaching parts to represent these elements. Since they are created to block each other, Lincoln Logs® offers additional PRAXI to coordinate skills for children above and over construction blocks. With the addition of special pieces, including doors and windows and accessories such as humans and bikes, the possibilities of imaginative games were further extended.

In 2003, in connection with the Centennial Celebration of the Association of Toy Industry, a list of the one of the most popular and creative toys of the twentieth century was issued. Toys are not evaluated, but are listed in the year when they were introduced. And there, among the raggeds Ann Doll introduced in 1915 and The Radio Flyer Wagon® introduced in 1917, are Lincoln Logs®. After changing their hands several times, Lincoln Logs® is recorded on the list as produced by K'Nex Industries Inc. In 2007, various Libyles offered NCOLN LOG® sets, including a memorial set of memory of an early edition, as well as Sheriff's office, farm, fire house and bank.
