    Quite a task to keep that secret across the whole internet. All the best for your quest.

    Our approach was - if you don’t believe then you don’t receive. So our 20 year old still does a Santa list.

    I read somewhere recently a mother being completely outraged that the school science teacher mentioned Santa's not real. This upset mother said her kid was 10 and still believed in Santa. The teacher had ruined everything, she said.

    I wouldn't tell kindergarten that Santa isn't real. But how on earth do you teach science to 10 year olds that way? Honestly, who'd be a teacher nowadays - it's getting harder for them every day I fear - always something they're doing wrong apparently!

    Hey.... I built Lego Steamboat Willy a couple of weeks ago and I'm proud of it. Lego is for EVERYBODY. You've hurt my feelings :(

    The towers bob up and down and the paddle steamer wheels turn as you move the model along the ground :) 20720319-D531-4D7E-9825-9F1068CB7B8B.jpeg

    Wait till you see the @Peter_Tersteeg collection (maybe that's his retirement plan - open a gallery) :D:D

    On a more serious sidenote - I believe it is actually being used for medical therapy related to autism and dementia.

    Building all my Lego will likely be a project that spans the generations.

    It's mostly limited edition Star Wars, mostly from the original trilogy. Some of the sets I've got are extremely rare these days but I'm still collecting the new stuff the develop.
