Advantages: superb collection of bricks Disadvantages: I am a bit old to play with them on my own
I am playing with the children?s toys again, this time the Duplo brick set 5572 .
I expect most of you know what a duplo brick is. Just in case you do not, Duplo bricks are made by Lego. Duplo bricks are twice the length, height and width of traditional Lego brick. But they are compatible, will join onto Lego bricks.
Lego have been making Duplo bricks since 1969 they have developed since .Duplo bricks are great construction bricks for children aged between 2 and 5 years old a child older than 5 will play with them but be able to use harder construction sets.
This brick set 5572 is a good one a great starter set, or one for nursery school. This set of bricks is contained in a sturdy green plastic box ideal for storage and keeping bricks tidy.
There are 100 duplo pieces in this set, so plenty for your children ...
Advantages: good rails long lasting Disadvantages: none
Duplotrain straight rails.
If your child has a basic duplotrainset, or you want to create one for them then you might want to buy the set of straight rails to expand it.
This pack2734 contains 6 pieces. It costs £4.99p from the Lego shop http://shop.lego.com/product/?p=2734&LangId=20 57&ShipTo=UK. It is also available at other toy shops and toy departments for around the same price.
Basically this set is just the straight train track pieces you will need to buy curved pieces too if you wish to make a circuit and you will need to buy a train to run on it too.
The curved track 2735 is a good compatible set to make a circuit it is available together withy the straight track for £9.96p at Amazon

as I can not find it in an on line shop. I think it will retail for about £15.
This bridge makes a good addition to that duplotrainset, compatible with the Thomas set or the standard set of duplo .
I really like LegoDuplo let is a hardwearing conjoining brick. The bricks are fairly easy to put together the colours bright and attractive.
Educationally Duplo bricks are good. They encourage fine motor skills and imaginary play. Can be used for colour recognition and basic maths counting. Good for language development too. Remember to play with your child some of the time as they will benefit from this, use the names for colour count the bricks use words like high and low.
So would I recommend this Duplo Bridge? Yes ...
