I brought out a few Tupperware bins and suddenly instead of just talking about LEGO bricks, all three of us were playing with them. There was no discussion of play; it was just once the bricks, plates, and tiles came out; we felt compelled to start building something. I'm not sure that could happen with any other game or toy. Apples to Apples is always a group request, while the Nintendo Wii is usually the scheduled entertainment for the evening.
The picture above is the red, white, and blue space ship I put together. Simple, parallel construction, 12 studs wide and unintentionally patriotic.
