my achievement of the day.

now i have to not be uptight about them playing with it and making bits fall off...

about an hour and a half of group construction effort involved (me + kids) with me being keen and patient mother for about an hour and 15 mins and then desperately trying not to make them go away so i could finish it in peace.

both carpet biters keen lego-ers - slighly ashamed not to have supplied carpet biter 1 with more sophisticated lego as she's got older as she got stuck in on this one.

it's all such a boy/girl thing with the marketing - bah humbag to lego. woolworths and co. with their barbie/action man view of the world which gets in to the kids heads whether i like it or not
