My 4- yo kid likes to build from instructions but once that's done he'll take them apart and mix the pieces with all the other dismantled kits making it a nearly impossible task to redo the original kits. But he'd rebuild simpler variants, the play factor is still there. I on the other hand am bit stumped by the amount of small varied pieces. I'm thinking of getting a bucket with classic pieces, perhaps non branded/generic legos.
- deltarholamda 5y agoMy kids do the same. They get a set, build it, play with it for a while, and then it gets deconstructed and mixed in with the Big Bin O' Lego. Oddball pieces become wings, or arms, or showerheads, or whatever their imagination sees. To me, that's the spirit of Lego. Even as a kid, I had friends who had, e.g., the Space Shuttle set, and once that shuttle got built, it was sacrosanct. If I tried to pilfer something from it, a blood feud would ensue.
