In Ramsey's blog about legos, she is saying how adults are willing to spend hundreds or even thousands of dollars on lego for their kids. Why would they spend this much? Simply to get some quiet and to have there kids occupied for a couple of hours. Ramsey also says "all those wonderful things that adults want kids to master but never let them learn on their own – process, trial-and-error, deduction, elimination – chaos will turn to order." she's saying how the legos show life lessons that kids don't usually learn that will help them later on in life.
The words that Ramsey uses makes her post sound so positive and fun other than it just being boring and formal facts. Words like "wonderful" "bright yellow bag" or even "humble". When she uses these words to describe legos, they sound amazing rather than describing them as "colored blocks that make a mess". Her paragraphs are also fairly small and short, not too lengthy. This attracts more readers because nobody wants to sit and reader long paragraphs, if the reader sees short friendly paragraphs, they are more likely to read them.
If i were to meet Krista Ramsey i would ask her where she gets the ideas on what to write about. She does an amazing job writing about different genres to interest all kinds of people. I would also ask her if she enjoys her job of just going around and writing about what's going on.
