Hi Bob:
My wife is a play therapist. She spends her days with children, from 2 and a
half and up, playing. Children at 2 are acquiring mastery at creating,
distroying, imagining. Playing with blocks for hours on end can be normal to
their development.
It's unlikely anything wrong with your child's behavior, but if you are
concerned, consider taking him to a therapist for an evaluation. If you
want, e-mail me at cary@corp.webtv.net and I send the information to my
wife. She may be able to provide a referral in your area.
