We put together our first Magic Block
I’ve always been curious about these little building toys; I always saw them as a bit strange. In my country, they became a very common trend, but I never dared to buy one—honestly, I felt like they weren’t for me. Yesterday, by chance, we saw a store that had several designs of these magic blocks, and my son wanted one. I decided to go for it because, first, I was already buying him things for Children’s Day, and second, I felt it would be a fun activity for the two of us to do together—and in fact, that’s exactly what it was.
It was a really fun activity, although a little stressful at times because the instructions that came in the box didn't match the pieces we had, so I had to look for a guide online that worked with the pieces we had.
It’s also pretty hard to fit the pieces together at first, but then it gets a little easier—though my fingers hurt a lot, and they’re still a little sore. We were super excited; my son was putting some pieces together while I put others together, and then we put everything together and watched as our character gradually took shape.
The worst part was when we got to the hat—that’s when I really felt frustrated. There was no way that hat was going to fit, and since the original instructions were useless, I had to rely on instructions I found online, which I also felt weren’t 100% reliable. In the end, I don’t know how I managed to get the hat to fit, but it looked pretty weird in the back. All that work, only for my son to take the hat apart again in less than 10 minutes. I tried to put it back together, but it was impossible, so right now Luffy is bald and missing half his skull.
It's actually a pretty good activity, to be honest—it just came with a few flaws for me—but even so, I'd love to get another one featuring a character I like so I can put it together.
