COPENHAGEN (Reuters) - Sales of Lego dinosaurs and a Bugatti sports car helped the Danish toymaker stabilize revenue in the first half of this year after a drop in 2017 for the first time in more than a decade. The privately-owned firm, famous for its colorful plastic bricks, pushed the “reset button” last year, acknowledging its business had grown too complicated. Its attempts to recover have been hampered by the bankruptcy of the biggest U.S. toy-store chain Toys’R’Us, but demand for new products such as the dinosaur-themed Jurassic World range helped to steady revenue in the first six months of the year.

It is also working with local education departments, state schools and the private education providers in China to get kids playing with Lego as a way to boost motor skills, creativity and attention spans, “The Chinese appreciate and emphasize that children learn something when they play ., There is a really nice fit between China and Lego,” said Christiansen, who joined Lego last year after nine years as CEO of Danish industrial group Danfoss, Lego, which competes with the likes of Barbie maker Mattel Inc and Hasbro, the firm behind My Little Pony, is also betting on toys that combine the physical woody cufflinks brick with the online world..

(Reuters) - Europe’s largest low-cost airline Ryanair (RYA.I) flew 9 percent more passengers in August than a year ago, it said on Tuesday, its purchase of Austrian carrier Laudamotion helping offset the impact of strikes and staff shortages.
