Once in a while he would call out for help, but mostly he worked on these projects quietly and independenly. My 5 year old (his cousin) needs to have a legion of helpers when he builds these.....So wow for M!!<br /><br />I'm glad he is enjoying them. I think it must be so good for him to do. Better than all these video games and tv watching that most kids his age do. I agree that these are a nuisance once they are built, but perhaps he can save them as a collection one day to decorate his room....If only we all had enough space to do that!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7061665328242748532.post-74776934032210497452011-08-21T22:02:09.499-04:002011-08-21T22:02:09.499-04:00Hi
