Inventing a Classic: The Story of Lincoln Logs
Born from architectural brilliance, Lincoln Logs were invented in 1916 by John Lloyd Wright, son of the iconic architect Frank Lloyd Wright. Inspired by log cabin designs he encountered on his travels, John transformed that rustic charm into an innovative toy—interlocking wooden pieces that let kids bring miniature cabins and forts to life.
Originally manufactured by the Playthings Manufacturing Company (which later became part of Hasbro), Lincoln Logs quickly captured hearts for their simple design and hands-on educational value. With each log placed, children unknowingly practiced the basics of architecture, engineering, and spatial thinking.
