Tinkering with red and green bricks
Older than legos, redoubtable fun
Yesteryear’s rudimentary dream house

Oh how much the kids miss out on…using their own mind and imagination. There is an upside with learning! Hugs

How practical would it be to buy an adult house for the price of the kid house! You wrote of those memories so well, sigh <3

The memory euphoric. I remember the windows and doors too. We didn’t have the internet but only our own imagination, collaborations with parents and peers. Hugs ~ Kim
