My first born was a son. He LOVED Legos, after him we had two girls,
they have always played with Legos, the little tiny ones from the time they
could walk. What is so fascinating to your husband about his manufacturing
tech is the puzzle of it all. Putting things together. I agree that girls
need to be introduced to computer from their point of interest, BUT do you
see the HUGE difference between yours and your husband's use of tech? He
understands the underlying tech to create things, you use what is created
to
do stuff, like skim news etc. We also need to help our girls see the fun
in
the underlying ability to create stuff, not just to use it.
I hope that my daughters (and sons) early introduction to creating, not
just
playing, will help them in the long run.
