children do not have
the attention span nor the fine motor skill to build a small vehicle out of
plates and

very quickly which is, IMO, the point of the Town/Jr. theme.  I could be

have been before.

In that case, why doesn't TLG make one or two Jr. sets in every theme?
That way, young children wouldn't just be limited to Town.

And leave non-Jr. sets alone.

I don't mind the existence of Town Jr. as much as I mind the loss of
'classic'-style sets.
