My grandson's 7th birthday was last Friday. One of my friends and her kids gave him a Transformer toy that was Bumblebee that could "transform" into a truck. It came with visual instructions. He asked me to help him transform it into the truck but every time we tried we got frustrated!
After working on it all weekend and into Monday night I finally got it "transformed" into the truck (using the visual instructions at the very last). Anyway, I felt as happy as if I was the 7 yr old that just got the present. This was an exercise in frustration and perseverance.
So, what did I learn from this toy?
1) Any toy that transforms is too complicated for me. I think it requires an ENGINEERING DEGREE.
2) It's easy to feel like a kid again . . . just help your kid with one of their toys. When your successful it takes you right back to kid days!
