David Attenborough, a name synonymous with nature documentaries and a voice that has guided us through the wonders of our planet, turning 100 is a milestone that resonates globally. LEGO's decision to extend its age limit from 99 to 100 is a brilliant and fitting tribute. It perfectly encapsulates the idea that curiosity and the joy of building, learning, and exploring should never cease, regardless of age.
