We provide a theme, but in general whatever they build is good by us. Today a four year-old was building a (remarkably accurate) oil rig. Asked why and he replied "because that's where the money is". True that. Oil money pays more of my friends salaries than not, it built the library I work in, and it pays a good portion of my husband's salary. Of course it is possible that the kid has a mom/dad/uncle/aunt/whatever who works on an oil rig and he's been told about it and shown pictures of it as to why this person disappears for weeks at a time. But I prefer to think we're just training them up young in Alaska. lizinthelibrary@idkfa.com (lizinthelibrary) Look down, look down...
