If you are looking for a toy that will stimulate and allow for your kids to express themselves, but without the risk of them taking the paintbrush to your wallpaper, then this could well be the toy for you. The Lego Duplo Building Set is a very nice pack that allows for your kids to build not just “squares” but rolling cars, houses planes and many other things as well. Included with this building “set” is a building plate used as a base for constructing houses and the like, 1 DUPLO figure, a wagon base, a window and of course all the building bricks. The user manual comes with a lot of great ideas for things that your child can build, and it would be my recommendation that you show the child how to build the things yourself, especially if they are only 2 or 3 years old.
The smaller items that come with the set, such as the flowers can be a real choking hazard and should be kept away from any child who is less than 2.5 or thereabouts, but this is a judgment call and of course the 3 years+ logo on the box is just a recommendation, if you feel confident your child can use the toy safely it is your prerogative. I have let my own 2 year old use this toy and she uses it almost every day, building towers mainly, she’s perhaps not the most creative of all children, but she enjoys the toy all the same. Even if it’s just build a tower and smash it to bits after it’s built, there is a great deal of fun to be had with these brick from a very young age. I remember having Duplo when I was small as well and I don’t want my daughter to miss out on the experience.
I actually live in Japan myself, and when it comes to trying to get hold of cheap toys from overseas it can be very difficult. The beast answer for me has on many occasions been Amazon.co.jp. But even then, there are some products that can only be bought in Japanese and in these cases I will buy the item (toy or dvd usually) from Amazon.com who have very respectable shipping to overseas addresses.
In conclusion I would say that this was a “can’t do without” toy for me and my kids, but even if you didn’t play with duplo yourself as a child I would thoroughly recommend this as your child will get lots of enjoyment out of it, no matter what their personality is.
