LEGO DUPLO My First Train Set

By The LEGO Group
Price $44.99
Age 2 - 5 yrs.

LEGO DUPLO building toys are specially designed for pre-school ages 1-1/2 to 5 years old. My First Train Set is a fine example of how wonderfully LEGO DUPLO products serve that age set, both in terms of providing joyful play and in developing the skills and thought processes coming to bloom during those years. Its pieces are large and chunky - sized perfectly for small hands. The ways in which those pieces can easily but firmly be put together to create larger structures (such as the track, train, station with ticket window, fuel pump, and stop-and-go signal) stimulates creative thinking and problem-solving while building essential motor skills. And for sheer glee, few things will measure up to the look on your child's face when he or she puts the train on the track and presses the green button. The locomotive lets out an authentic train whistle sound as it begins chug-chugging around the track. The set comes with 51 sturdy, colorful pieces (including train driver and child DUPLO figures) and requires 3 AA batteries to power the engine.
