5 out of 5 stars Duplo is a classic for little builders   November 23, 2009
Archie DeBunker
Lego Duplo is a wonderful gift for little builders

Pros:

It's incredibly flexible
It stimulates the imagination, and builds hand-eye coordination
The toy is tough, and safe
It works in conjunction with "regular" legos when the child is older
No worries about getting the child a duplicate gift. If someone else got the kid the exact same set, no problem! Twice as many legos is twice as good!
Comes with a neat case to keep the duplos organized.

Cons:

Stepping on Duplos in your bare feet will cause 5 d20 piercing and bludgeoning damage. Dungeons and Dragons references aside, it's very painful, because the toy is so durable. This only seems to bother adults - kids have no problems with this because they have little feet and don't weigh very much.

I bought this for my 2yr old daughter. She loves to sit and play with this product. Although I am not a child development expert, I think this product helps to further develop her fine motor skills.

LEGO's are a classic gift! My son just loves them. This box is very nice for holding them in one place and is easy for him to open it. It's the ultimate starting pack for children :) Like it ALOT!


4 out of 5 stars Good Starter Set, but could use another large plate.   November 8, 2009
Karen Post (Westminster, CO)
This is a great first set. Duplo blocks are Lego's larger toddler blocks, so the smallest piece is an over-sized 2x2 block.

I would suggest buying one of the big green base plates along with this set. LEGO Large Green Building Plate (15" X 15") This set has only the one smallish green building plate to build on which limits what you can build. We had to be creative to build houses, stairs or anything requiring a large base.

Included in this set is a smallish green base, a car frame and a lego man as well as a nice variety of building blocks. The storage bin is very durable and easy for adults to open but a challenge for most toddlers. One odd thing about this set is that many of the colors are kind of muted rather than the bright, vivid colors most of us associate with a basic lego starter set--this surprised me, but didn't bother my toddler at all.

I think the base plate is supposed to work with both Duplo and standard Legos, but I'm not sure. I think Duplo blocks are supposed to connect into the standard legos, too--although I don't know many older kids that would want to do that.

My twin three year olds have really taken to this set in recent months and it has really brought out their creativity. They have built me all manner of houses, trains, tracks, cars, aeroplanes and schools and even Kenya. I love their pride as they explain to me what they have built. I also love that they are able to play together quietly for more than 5 minutes with this toy. The box makes storage and clean up time easier. I wish that there were more bricks and more wheels and a bigger base plate but the real beauty of this toy is that you can add to it to suit your needs.
