So recently at Walmart I suddenly spotted the Lego set 76026 on clearance, and picked one up.
This Sunday, with no plans but to stay home and rest, I decided I would build this set with my three-year-old son. Yes, I know the set says age 6 and up, but as everyone knows, Lego age ranges are conservative.
I helped him with some of the tougher steps, and soon he was playing with Grodd and Flash.
"Now, remember." I told him. "Grodd the gorilla is the bad guy, and Flash is the good one."
"But ..." He was puzzled. "All Grodd wants is a banana. What's so bad about that?"
Well, how do you answer that. Soon, all the figures were assembled.
"This is Captain Cold." I told him. "He is also a bad guy."
"I like his gun. I will make him the good guy."
"No! You can't do that." I tried to tell him. "You are playing it wrong."
I left him alone for some time, and then I came back to find all the figures sitting in one spot on the table.
"What are they doing?"
"Well," He said. "They are all watching a movie. They are friends."
OK. I am guessing this was for 6 year olds after all. Three year olds are too innocent!
