Lego Duplo Building Set

Lego is a European toy company based in Denmark  that started as a small business in the 1930′s.  One of the best known lines  is the Lego Duplo line.  Today, the Lego Duplo Building Set has been in the top 100 of best selling toys at the major retailer, Amazon.com

What I really like about the Lego Duplo Building Set is that they are so durable and well built.  Add to the fact that they are non toxic makes them a winning toy for toddlers to play with.  The pieces are larger than traditional Lego pieces.  I almost chuckle when I read that they come with building instructions.  Yes, they are meant for the parents.  But let’s get real, most toddlers want to play with them and experiment with their own tiny little hands.  In the event that you as a parent want to get creative, the instructions are very detailed and will show you how to build all kinds of cool designs that will thrill any child.

The Lego Duplo building set is specifically made for toddlers ranging from a year and half to 5 years of age.  This is where young kids develop their motor skills by building things such as Lego.  When you first pick up one of these blocks, you will quickly notice that they are approximately 8 times larger than standard Lego blocks.  The large size makes it easier for toddlers to handle with their tiny fingers.  Additionally, concerned parents do not have to be concerned about their toddlers swallowing the  blocks because of the large size.

Since the Lego Duplo Building Set is larger than traditional Lego building blocks, they can easily be placed in the dishwasher and sanitized.  Being free of germs and viruses is a major concern for most parents.

Since you are buying a Lego set for a toddler, The Lego Duplo Building Set 5380 is a great value since it will connect with regular Lego bricks when your child gets older!.
