Caramel and Rhett have a bucket full of Legos- Anthony's Legos from his youth. They have enjoyed creating with them and all the different pieces for several years. This Christmas, Caramel and Rhett received some Lego sets and learned about following the directions to build items. Building can be challenging with Myles and Camellia around. (Rhett got a motorcycle Lego, Myles quickly took over and lost most of the pieces, luckily Rhett wasn't too attached.) Caramel does a great job following the directions but loves help. Rhett however can get frustrated when he thinks he is building correctly then pieces don't attached right. Also keeping track of all the pieces and instructions is challenging. It was a ton easier when they just had the bucket and the creative could go anywhere. Although, I do think it is an important skill to be able to follow directions.
Lego building usually happens with daddy and so does Minecraft. Rhett loves to build in Minecraft. Anthony first played with Caramel and Rhett, teaching them how to build and survive. Now they can play successfully by themselves. It is fun to watch the excitement when a new aspect is learned.
