SWE 110 Losing my ipad travelling in Thailand

You may sometimes notice people at airports wearing a green lanyard with sunflowers on it. This is usually worn by people who have a hidden disability — disabilities that can't always be seen from the outside, such as learning difficulties or autism.

But soon, you might start noticing the Sunflower lanyard somewhere new: Lego pieces.

The toy company announced on December 3 — International Day of Persons with Disabilities — that it has partnered with Hidden Disabilities Sunflower, the UK company that first created the lanyards in 2016.

Lego is releasing three sets featuring the lanyard: one for its Duplo toys, which are for kids under the age of 8; an airport set for older children; and a set with over 3,000 pieces for adults. The sets will go on sale between January and June 2025.

People will also be able to add the Sunflower lanyard when customizing their own Lego pieces at official Lego stores in parts of Europe and North America.

The Lego Group said it's proud to have created what it calls "the world's first toys to feature the official Sunflower lanyard," and hopes the sets will promote inclusion for people of different ages and with different disabilities.

On Lego's website, Martin Moxness, an adult Sunflower lanyard user, said seeing the lanyard on Lego pieces will help normalize hidden disabilities.

"As a child, this would have been life-changing and would have made me feel seen and accepted," he added.

According to the World Health Organization, one in six people around the world lives with some form of disability, many of them hidden. Disability inclusion is an important part of achieving health for all, it said.

Over 280 airports around the world now recognize the Sunflower lanyard, Hidden Disabilities said.

Episode 06：最近ハマっているもの

LOS AZTECAS.

Uno de los grupos indígenas mexicanos más conocidos es el formado por los aztecas. En realidad, se trata de muchas tribus individuales, principalmente de habla nahuatl, que reconocen su origen en el mítico lugar de Aztlán. El grupo más poderoso de los aztecas era el Mexica. Al parecer, se trasladaron al Valle de México después de que su dios, Huitzilopochtli, les ordenase cambiar de emplazamiento en el siglo XIII. Se cree que otras 16 tribus indígenas emigraron de su tierra natal a esta zona de México donde se encontraba el Imperio Azteca.

Siendo uno de los últimos pueblos indígenas en llegar al Valle de México, los mexicas encontraron que toda la buena tierra estaba ya ocupada. Se vieron obligados a seguir buscando su propio lugar hasta que finalmente encontraron una pequeña isla en un lago del valle, que luego se convertiría en el famoso asentamiento azteca de Tenochtitlán. Los mexicas se hicieron expertos en el desarrollo de su país de origen, lo que les ayudó a elevar su posición en la escala social y política del Imperio Azteca, así como los matrimonios mixtos con otras tribus.
