The purpose of the instructions is to learn the techniques. First you build with the instructions, then you tear it apart and build what you want.
Not everyone is into the instructions -- my daughter follows them meticulously and will only build with instructions. My son refuses to follow instructions and will only "master build".
When I was a kid I'd build with the instructions, and eventually I destroyed everything and built a whole city from scratch.

Every kid is different.
