Lego Tutor

Tovrea's interest in Legos is a passion. He passionately wants more and more lego sets, so that he can sort-of put them together...lose interest... and ultimately have all the different parts of different sets mixed up together resulting in nothing built.

Over the last couple of years we have accumulated several sets, there are the numerous Star Wars sets, the Castle set, the many Police sets, the Aquarius sets...it goes on.  About a year ago, I started to realize this was getting crazy and we set about separating all the pieces by color. Many more months went by and we were slightly more organized yet no real progress in building.  Feeling overwhelmed by the mass of lego confusion and having nothing to show for the 16 sets he already owned, we were at a loss.  Ugh! What to do!

That is where our fantastic lego hero comes in...to save us from lego misery!  The best project of the summer has been having Zach at our house helping, tutoring and guiding Tovrea through lego directions and completing so many of the unbuilt space ships, air crafts, bionicles, etc.

I made a deal with Tovrea, no more new lego sets until as many as possible of the 16 sets were built and displayed on his shelf. I agreed to hire Zach as our lego tutor, to come once or twice a week for a couple of hours through the summer.  Tovrea idolizes Zach, who is 13 and amazingly smart and so sweet to T!

I have to say this has been a huge success!  Tovrea, of course, will be rewarded for his concentration, learning and determination with a new lego set....hehe!!

Good Job Tovrea...you're getting it done!
