Dad and Me Love History

4. Mr Lego v Mr Disney: who’s the best ever?

We look at the history of the creators of the two greatest sources of kids' entertainment. How did the creators of Lego and Disney get started? How have they changed the world? And how are Lego and Disney today different from during their early years?

Questions to ask your kids after they've listened:

  1. What’s your favourite Lego set or character?
  2. What’s your favourite Disney character?
  3. “Lego” is a shortened version of the two Danish words "leg godt". What does “leg godt” mean?
  4. What is a “memoir”?
  5. When was the first minifigure made?
  6. Are there are enough Lego bricks in the world to stretch from Earth to further than the moon?
  7. Who pushed Mickey Mouse down the stairs in the world’s first animated movie that had sound?
  8. Who’s the best – Lego or Disney?
