Remember when kids used their imaginations?

Do you have kids? Kids do build these kits, and most don't just put them on the shelf. They learn principles of construction from the kits they get to use on other things they build.

There are tons of videos of amazing Lego machinery out there. You'd be fairly amazed at the stuff kids (including my own) are able to fabricate on their own.

Also, when I was growing up all I had was 3 different sizes of Legos. I had to use my imagination to build shite.

Same here. They were square or rectangle and came in 4 colors. Some were flat.
