If you think the wooden building blocks are only for young children … think again! There are many fun and interesting things, including students secondary can enjoy doing. Most of these will work best on a hard surface like linoleum or hardwood instead of carpet or rugs. For some of them, you can even work at a table.

1. Build a tower so tall and narrow as possible. Count the number of blocks of wood used and take photos. Search the world record for a tower of wooden blocks. Measure yours. Did you come by?

2. Build a castle and decorated with banners of paper glued to toothpicks of teeth. Gentlemen and ladies make paper figures cut from magazines. Add an image of himself and tape a paper crown. Congratulations! You are now ruling a kingdom in miniature.

3. Create a maze to the hamster and the time it takes to happen. If it seems unmotivated, give a little training. Start him off easy with a line with the food in the end, so has the idea (helps if you're hungry). Then add one or two turns. Finally he put in a maze of right with many turns and dead ends. Time it in successive rounds. Does your speed to improve?

4. If your wooden building blocks are of different sizes and shapes, can be as fun and challenging as any puzzle to try to compact stack them together in the smallest possible space.

5. Bowling alleys Scheme miniature blocks and challenge your friends to a game. Erasers cap colors for use marbles to bowling and bowling balls. Deduct points for hitting the walls block of the street. Make the game more difficult for maintaining the rails long enough, and erasers well enough that you must hit exactly the right to get a strike. Make the game easier, shorter routes and positioning of the eraser a bit more together.

6. Build a spiral staircase. This may require a lot of building blocks to achieve the full effect, but it will be great fun.

7. Build an arch made entirely of blocks wood. For help, look for their free arms. If your wooden building blocks are not a trapezoidal shape, you may need to create a cardboard the top.

8. Building a "domino city and carefully run a line of dominoes in, out, around, up, down and building blocks. Setting up a small bell at the end (one of the few Christmas Jingle Bells attached to a tape works well). Push the first domino domino down.

9. Surprise your mother set the table for dinner early. The surprise for its careful balance between each glass of water on a pile of blocks wood construction. Explain solemnly could not find any glasses, so he improvised as best he can.

10. If you have a cat or dog While that is a child (or older sibling), carefully building a "house" right on top of them out of the blocks. Yes, include a roof (which can support with strips of cardboard for the longer blocks are not long enough for the roof of base). If a large dog, or his older brother, it is possible that only locks for your home enough to cover their heads. That's good. Make sure to be around when they wake up! Or maybe, if his elder brother, you should be far away.
