Lego Duplo is Lego, designed and created for toddlers and young children (Ages 18 months and over).
Lego Duplo has larger bricks than regular Lego. The bricks are are easier to put together and also take apart, so small hands can build their creations easily.
Lego Duplo is a very safe and rewarding toy for young children and can develop their hand eye co-ordination skills as well as their sense of creativity and imagination. Lego Duplo sets are perfect toys for young girls or boys and are often a stepping stone to larger and more complicated Lego sets.

Lego Duplo
Lego Duplo is one of the best and long lasting children’s toys of our generation.
Duplo lasts and lasts and is made to the strictest safety regulations.
My son’s first Lego set was a Duplo set, a large farm that he received at age 2. He played with that set for over 8 years and his sister played with it as well. They both eventually graduated to regular Lego sets but in all honesty, if we didn’t have to pass the Duplo onto a friend because we were moving to a smaller house, they would still play with it 10 years on.
Kids like LegoDuplo because it is colorful and versatile.
Parents like Duplo because it is solid and it lasts.
If you have ever picked up a competing brand’s plastic building block, you will notice it is soft and pliable. Lego Duplo isn’t like that. It is strong, is almost impossible to break and is also colorfast. Our blocks kept their color for over 8 years, and were as vibrant as the day we bought them.
As a mother, Duplo was the one toy that lasted all through my children’s early years
It is the one toy I would purchase another child of similar age without thinking twice.

Duplo allows very young children to safely explore and play. The blocks are colorful and appealing for young fingers and at this stage of their development children can work at stacking the bricks together and taking them apart again.
The Lego Duplo figures and animals allow children to play with remembering sounds and names.

And as the posibilites grow, Lego Duplo enhances a child’s transition into school and the larger world of independence. Lego Duplo is compatible with regular-sized Lego pieces when a child is ready to move onto bigger sets.
Lego Duplo has been a part of my life for over 10 years and as a parent I will be forever grateful to Lego for creating such a quality product that my kids and I love.
