Why does it not print what it is touching? Should it not print "1" which is the name of the first part?

Here. I changed the event to only work if the part isn't equal to nil. I also added Debounce so that it dosen't just print loads of stuff at once. If you want to learn about Debounce go here: http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=Debounce

01local debounce = false
02local NB = Instance.new("Part", game.Workspace)
03NB.Size = Vector3.new(1,1,1)
04NB.Position = Vector3.new(0,0,0)
05NB.Anchored = false
06NB.Name = "1"
07 
08print("Ok_1")
09 
10game.Workspace.PartFolder.ChildAdded:connect(function(Brick)
11    if Brick then
12        print("Ok_2")
13 
14        wait(1) 
15 
16        print(Brick.Name)
17 
18        Brick.Touched:connect(function(Thing)
19            if not debounce then
20                debounce = true
21                print("Ok_3")
22                print(Thing) 
23                print("poop")
24                wait(3) --changes this to how long you want the script to wait before it can print something again
25                debounce = false
26            end
