Hey Brian,
Welcome to the community.
As a fellow Yank on the forum, I want to warn you that there is a whole new world here to get lost in.
I am a grandpa to 8, and so far none of my grandkids are of an age to focus on model, too many Legos I guess.
They do love to see crafts on the water, and lately I have let them drive a little.
Hope you have success with your son.
Any time spent is time well spent.
Regards,
Jim Pope
