This one is all yours

Nothing sharp, nothing hot, nowhere far. Tell someone what you're up to, then go ahead and do it on your own.

What to do there

5 steps. Tap one when it's done.

Why it's like that

Building small teaches the same things as building big: a roof needs walls to sit on, a path needs to go somewhere, and a wall of pebbles stands up better if the big ones go on the bottom.
