Legos, Legos, Legos. We got John into lego's some time ago. He really loves them. But now he can actually build a few small sets. When it comes to the more larger sets we of course have to help him out. Needless to say the most of them are Star Wars lego's. There are a number of other series he's getting into. One point of concern though.....we'll spend a number of HOURS building these sets with him and within 2 hours or a day.......he blows them up. And I'm not talking in just major sections.....as the photos show......he took them apart piece by piece.....down to the little pieces. If he sees them blow up on the TV.......he'll blow them up with his hands. But what I do like when we help him build these things.......it helps him to think in a 3 dimensional way......looking at the steps in the instructions....which are 3D...then put them together in real time. It's coming along I think. His Pre-K teacher has told us he has the highest IQ in the class. Now I don't know if that's saying much with a Pre-K class. But I do believe that teaching him to think in a 3D way has a part to play in that.
