LEGO Technic sets - which ones are actually fun to build with kids?
My 9 and 12 year old got some birthday money and want Technic sets. I made the mistake of buying the Crane set last year and it was... tedious. Like, 3 hours of repetitive building. They got bored halfway through.
Looking at the Car Designer set or the Excavator. Has anyone built these? Are they more dynamic? Do the kids actually play with them after or just sit on a shelf?
Trying to avoid another boring expensive brick situation here lol
Real talk: with a 9 and 12yo, split the budget and get them each their own smaller Technic set instead of one big one. Less waiting around for each other, more fun
