Part of me wants to preserve these sorts of things unopened for at least a generation, but what is lost in not bothering to use them in the mean-time?
The precious moments of building this together with my son is worth much more than a few dollars.
If you build something good with the Lego set with your child, and if you both actually enjoy it, then that is certainly worth much more than a few dollars increase in the price of the Lego set.
Time spent with your family in happiness, in enjoyment and in love cannot be expressed in dollars.
You cannot buy these things with money, no matter how much money you have.
Much better to open and use the Lego sets with children now than to keep then unopened for a generation.
Your children will have good childhood, and all of you will have very good and very pleasant memories.
If you really would like to keep a Lego set unopened, then one good possible solution is to buy two from the same Lego set, and open and use one, and keep the other unopened to sell it later for a better price.
This is true, but it also causes controversy. Our family could be much better off financially if I had a 9 - 5 away from home. But a good childhood for my children with their father present is much more important to me than wealth, spending time with my wife throughout the day is more valuable than money - but sadly it doesn't pay the bills very well. That's why when I make an "investment" purchase of legos, I wonder if I should have exchanged it for dollars... but in the end I think I made the correct (and consistent) choice. My true "investment" is in my children, not in dollars.
