I prefer things where kids can build from their imagination. But role-playing with plastic French bread is good too.<br />Y'all recently played with our tub of Lego over Christmas and made highways and bridges and zoos. Hours of fun.<br />I saw a special on BBC a couple of weeks ago about how Lego came into existence and how they attribute it to new generations of designers and architects. So, the colors perhaps will not matter at all--it's the creativity. Keep playing--at any age.Lindlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01729656346990206611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3115132896435909080.post-76371184164577566582014-04-25T19:13:50.503+02:002014-04-25T19:13:50.503+02:00That bread set is priceless.That bread set is priceless.I Say Ouihttp://isayoui.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3115132896435909080.post-89439961490172334232014-04-24T23:51:54.160+02:002014-04-24T23:51:54.160+02:00Thanks for your point of view, Nicole, and I hadn&...Thanks for your point of view, Nicole, and I hadn't really thought of it that way. It's true that girls crave more character play and maybe these new sets satisfy that more while letting girls be creative and constructive too.

They definitely don't mind playing with regular legos, but when we were at the store buying a bucket of loose pieces, they did reach for the light color (with the pink box) but they said it is because they dont like the gray and brown in the boys stuff, which, you know, fair enough. We recently went to the Centre de Urbanisme de Paris to sign up for 'architecture' ateliers after noticing that the models look like Lego buildings. I feeli like the girls feel like architects building with their legos, not 'silly girls playing with pink blocks' like some people have suggested when they see our collection of Lego Friends stuff. I find that insulting. Pink does not make you stupid and if that makes the girls like their legos more, I am happy. Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15824366219538701722noreply@blogger.com
