• En el verano siguiente al jardín de infancia, un amigo me introdujo en el placer de construir maquetas de plástico de aviones y barcos de guerra. En cuarto, me pasé al juego de construcción y pasé muchas horas construyendo artefactos de propósito desconocido en los que el principal criterio de diseño era maximizar el número de piezas móviles y el tamaño total. La alfombra del salón se llenaba a menudo de cientos de "vigas" metálicas y pequeñas tuercas y tornillos que rodeaban estructuras a medio terminar. Una madre comprensiva me permitía seguir con los proyectos durante días enteros.

• It's a crazy time right now with kids. They are so much, more savvy than even their parents are. They are handing down their devices to their parents.

It's scary but at the same time it's exciting. There are a lot of choices for them.
