Just yesterday my 9 year-old proudly revealed his latest flying creation, created - as almost all our children's Lego builds are - entirely out of his own imagination and from the multiple tubs of bricks that sit next to his bed.
Each new Lego boxed set gets built from the instructions exactly once. Admired for a while (days to months), then duly ripped to bits and the pieces are used to build much better things that then can - and do - change on an hourly basis.
I'm not about to interrupt my kids' creativity by even telling them about this app. They need less screen time, not more.

- spookthesunset 4y agoTotally agree. All though in modern times they’ll just watch ten YouTube / Netflix / paramount+ videos where some dude builds Lego shit. Look at all the Minecraft videos out there. I kinda wonder if it’s us who needs to catch up. I mean I watch city skylines videos, FPV videos, and gun videos. All those are inspiration for my hobbies. What’s the difference between that and a Lego or “LOL surprise” video my kid watches? Dunno dude. Kinda think we are the old geezers in this one.
- exit 4y agothe externalisation of human abilities into machines is going to be a major theme in your offsprings life and encountering this app could inspire interest in how automation is achieved.
