Welcome to World Works. I think you will find your time here worth it. I certainly have, as have many others.
Cardstock is a great alternative to scratch builds, and you will fill it stores and transports WAY more easily. Plus, its a lot cheaper, quicker to build, and easier to modify.
I think you'll also find that DungeonWorks is just scratching the tip of the iceberg. And if it was DungeonWorks Classic - well, just wait until you get into the newer stuff. DWC isn't bad, by any stretch - but the newer sets are simply unbelievable. What Denny (and Pall) have done for scenery is fantastic.
My five year old little girl likes to "help" daddy with his builds, too. We've gotten a decent arrangement going, where we work on projects together - her with her paper and glue and markers, and me with mine. It works well. For Christmas she wanted a box of D&D minis (to balance out all the Kim Possible and Barbie junk), and was just thrilled with what she got in her booster. Now she wants to play miniatures with me, on the cool scenery. Aren't kids fun?
