For Christmas Tommy asked for a Lego. His first time he has ever wanted anything Lego but I think seeing Jack build them in the fall he wanted one. The one he asked for was a white house, similar to ours he said. He worked on it for about 4 days of Christmas break then said he was done...frustrated pulled the pieces all apart and put it all back in the box..it was more work and more complicated than he had ever thought.
We packed it away thinking when Jack got older he would enjoy it as the age is 9-12 on it I believe.
Well, this afternoon while I have been beginning to clean out my desk area, the boys schoolwork papers from last year...Jack asked where it was. He started it about an hour ago. And is LOVING it. Despite the fact that all of the pieces were in one HUGE bag vs. the normal 1 step at a time bags he is used to.
It will be interesting to see how many hours/days it takes him to build it. He is VERY excited about it. Tommy is happy to see him doing it for him as well. :) Goes to show that every child is certainly unique. Legos are not Tommy's gig and shooting basketballs for an hour isn't Jack's. It's fun to see how they are different....
Jack and Luke share the Lego love - Luke could sit for hours and work on those project. Please tell us how it turns out!
ReplyDeleteSeth really likes legos too. He has a few small sets from his birthday. I'm guessing he would like the bigger/harder sets too as he gets older.
