The lego club



I spent the weekend with Seb tearing out the kitchen and with Little S sorting Legos and talking with him about the Lego Club hes eager to start.  When we moved to China all the posh private schools had these awesome after school programs for art, pottery, music  and languages and there was even one for Legos.  I never got so far as to find out the details of how the club actually  worked but it really captured Little S s imagination that he could sit around building with other kids one day a week after school,

There isn't such a club anywhere around here which is why we've been toying with the idea of starting one on our own,  I think it will be enterprising and fun for Little S to get it started so I am giving him almost full reign on it, with just a few rules.  It has to be limited to four kids a semester.  The kids have to pay a bit to help cover the costs of feeding them gouter and for my having a full house one day a week...and to keep only the participants who are serious,  And we need  funds to build up the brick bounty so the money will help build  up the supplies.  What fun!   They can build their creations each week and leave them to work on when they come back.  I think it will be a big success,    We just have to work out what to charge and Little S has to find the serious minded Lego kids in his classes.
