How would you describe FLL and what do you think its benefits are?

FLL opens younger students' minds at a young age. They can have their heros at a young age that isn't a sports or music star. FLL always high school, and college students and adults to be their heros.
They can play with a toy they love and have a challenge. It's not just about getting pieces in a set and putting it together but now a new "world" is open to them. They learn about engineering concepts from the start with coming up with a design, building and testing. It is also an experience that allows them to interactive with other students and lets them research a topic most likely not faced in the classroom.

Also if you could describe FLL in one word what would it be (besides fun)?
