[quote=Anonymous]The occasional set is fine and can inspire new work, but IME open building can't be beat as far as developing building skills and troubleshooting. Guess what - kids came come up with quite creative new uses of pieces themselves if you give them a chance. I'd also rather have my kid experiment and fail with a few creations than just follow plans to get it right every single time. Their final work may not be quite as sophisticated but they are certainly unique and have a lot of thought behind them. They are telling stories as they build them, not just when they play them or rework them later. We do a few big sets per year (or book inspirations), but the vast majority of our time is spent free-building. -Lego-loving engineer [/quote]
