Lovin the Legos

For all you moms of little boys, wouldn't you agree it is sometimes hard to figure out how to play with your little men? I mean, playing tractors or trucks - what exactly do you do, drive them around in circles? I can do that, but it sure isn't very exciting, and I'm not sure that me pushing around a truck or tractor intensifies the fun for my little guy. I can color, play Play-Doh, craft, and even play games as these kinds of activities have a beginning and an end. There is a definite objective. But tractors and trucks? What exactly is the objective? I hope to figure it out!

Recently, Camden was gifted with several sets of new Legos. The Duplo Legos are the larger blocks in which Camden is now a pro at putting together and building "semis, campers, trucks, etc." on his own. But, Cam does need a little extra help with the traditional smaller Lego blocks. Growing up with only a sister, we didn't have a set of Legos. So, I have been learning how to build trucks, houses, flowers, and boats with Legos. I must say, I enjoy playing Legos with Camden - there is an objective and I actually feel as if I'm contributing to his "playing" experience.

I want to remember this as Camden turns 3.
