    Ahh Legos, I recently bought myself the new NXT Mindstorms kit and I have been building Duplos for my son. I can't wait till he's old enough to start building things, it will be a blast building things with him.

    Unless of course your son is like mine and says something along the lines of: "this is boring, Dad. I'm gonna go play gamecube." :mad::mad::mad: :mad::mad::mad: :mad::mad::mad: I don't know whether to crush the thing or just give in and play it myself... I swear it's one of THE tough parenting decisions... X| ...Steve

        Saw a 10 foot tall space man at the NASA Space Center in Mississippi. I believe there was a Space Shuttle too but it was a long time ago so I'm not sure.

            I've got the NXT also, my 5 year old could probably program it using the software but he just got Roboraptor http://www.roboraptoronline.com/[^] This is cool

              I used to love Lego as a child and have fond memories of shooting my kid brother with a Lego crossbow (sadly only elastic for the bow and Lego rail track for the bolt), but now I think that K'nex is better.

                  :laugh: I was thinking that, but then I saw the harpsichord and thought, "That's kind of cool." Followed by, "Ooh, an A/C unit!"
