Yesterday I was at my kindergartener's end of school open house and I noticed
two half full buckets of Lego in the play area, so of course I had to check it
out. Wow, what a thrashed and trashed assortment! And then my son came up and
very sadly told me it was no fun to play with LEGO at school because Alex
always hogs all the wheels (evidently the kids love to build cars). I verified
the lack of wheels with the teacher and offered to bring in a few extra wheels
we have. So today my kid took in a bucket brimming with wheels, axles,
windshields, tow hooks, headlight printed bricks, Timmys, perpetually surprised
professors, extra bricks (in case some kids actually want to build a structure
or something!)... well, you get the picture. My kid was pleased because he got
to be "in charge" of the LEGO today, and the teacher was tickled to get this
addition which effectively doubled the class collection.
Ack, it occurs to me I missed my chance to dump a few Willas!
