But Anders, if the *playing* is the important part, then why don't we
just buy pre-built, ready-to-go toys for our kids? They're sturdier,
usually; cheaper, just about always; have more functionality, without a
doubt. If my kids want to play with cars, they get out their
Matchbox/Hotwheels. When they want to create their own stuff, they use
LEGO.
If there's no significant builing involved, the appeal of LEGO
diminishes greatly. A parent might buy there kid a few Town, Jr. sets,
but (generally) they aren't going to spend enough for the child to
create an entire town.
