Tools for Imagination Then & Now - Lego's and Lincoln Logs!

Do ya have any of these laying around your home? We do! Ever since we bought the first Lego set for the boys years ago, we all play around with them.

See? Over time, we have a couple of baskets like this that move around our home. It is full of flat pieces for fortresses, or stations, or planes, automobiles, you name it. We even have some Transformer type stuff too. Its fun to sit around with a few of these pieces and create whatever comes to mind. As the boys get older we don't quite get the time to fiddle with this like we used to.

Here is what Brian and I put together a couple of nights ago. Lately, its been sporty stuff, but not to long ago  it was a star wars fighter plane, and a Lego race car too. We vary!

See? A little soccer stadium.

Remember these? Yes, I still have mine. GO ahead, laugh. I loved Lincoln Logs! I keep these around for "old school" times as the boys like to put it! The box is long gone, but the imagination isn't!
