Hell, I remember a great afternoon of carefully excavating a fossil from one of those clay bricks you get from the Tyrell museum with hidden plastic dinosaur inside, after a day trip to Drumheller. The older kid was big into dinosaurs and it meant more to me because we were doing something HE really liked. We got them Lego every Christmas/Birthday/whatever but that dinosaur is what I remember.
If you're a good dad, you'll always find things to do with your kids. The kid is going to remember the time with Dad, not what model was built, so don't get hung up thinking he's going to be in awe of some 2024 Lego model. When the time comes just go get the latest 2030 one off the shelf, and he'll enjoy building that just as much, and maybe more when he gets to add the one HE helped with beside the other ones that only Dad could do!
