Honestly, I can think of 1001 things I would rather do than pore over the tiny instruction manual and figure out how to stack small LEGO blocks together. (Those big LEGO blocks don’t trigger me as much.)
Oh, im at the opposite end. My oldest at 4 is totally lego crazy. I gave him Duplo first, but he noticed the regular Lego fast and i had few things from my childhood.. So he quickly asked for the real thing. Man.. we have built like 10 small sets now.. and i really enjoy building with him. Its probably where we share the most fun
