The Perfect Starter Set for Girls
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I grew up on K’Nex. I’m a 23 year old male. I have two little sisters. One’s a snob-nosed, arrogant high school senior (I still love her), the other’s a sweet, 8-year-old. Nevertheless, the latter plays too many video games, in my opinion.

So I thought of ways to stop that. I hid the controls. She found them. I took away the cable. She complained, but I still kept it away. But I’ve been thinking for some time of getting her some creativity and educational toys that she can spend hours and hours with. I rummaged through my old toys and found my big ol’ K’Nex box. Floods of memories and nostalgia inundated my psyche, and I hoped she would spend countless hours of pure imagination and fun with them as I did. Suffice to say, she played with them for a mere week. Looks like I had lost quite a few pieces over the years; she was limited with the amount she could build and grew bored.

I wasn’t too much of a LEGO fan growing up, but I thought I’d give ‘em a try. Her birthday came and went, and she’s still playing with this set.

Success!

She hasn’t really mentioned video games since getting this set, and even though the structures don’t take too much time to build, she spent hours after her initial construction taking them down, and rebuilding several other, imaginative devices of her own.

I’m glad she likes them–that makes me happy. After having a couple friends over, she came down with her LEGO set and started playing in the vicinity. My mates immediately exclaimed “LEGOs!” and began reminiscing of their days rife with the little plastic bricks.

Maybe she wouldn’t mind getting some more sets in future Christmases and birthdays, expanding her range of creativity and building. But I sure am glad she likes ‘em!
