Were you a LEGO kid?
love lego
Yes and now my son is a Lego kid...he has all his Dad's lego from when he was a kid and he is collecting sets he loves too.
I love legos. My favorite set was the Kingdoms. I dont see that one around as much anymore. I think lego tends to do movie themes more than anything these days. Oh well it still dosent take away from the creative ability!
I was and so were my kids. Not surprised they create billons of Legos each year (I got that one right on the quiz!) *blessed
Indeed I was, back in the day when you had to use your imagination to make something. Today, Lego is set out in the instruction book but my boy loves it and collects all sorts of Lego. Interesting lens and there is soooo much Lego.
