Description

Made for a first build

The name gives away the aim: this set is for children picking up bricks for the first time. With 148 pieces it is big enough to allow more than one model, yet small enough not to overwhelm. A minifigure comes with it, so there is something to play with straight after the build. Parents can start alongside the child and gradually step back, since the steps quickly become familiar and the whole thing feels manageable.

A lot of variety

The mix of shapes is striking: 60 different part types in just 148 pieces, more than many starter sets offer. Children meet a range of forms early on, such as flat plates, roof bricks or wheels, and discover how to combine them. The four main colours are black, yellow, red and dark bluish grey. That gives strong contrasts which are easy to tell apart without looking too busy. Every part is listed on this page with its colour and quantity.

From model to free play

The Bricks & More range counts on instruction models quickly turning into ideas of the child's own. Once the first model is finished, it can be rebuilt, mixed with other bricks or started over entirely. This is exactly where the varied parts help, because they open up more options than a pile of identical standard bricks would. Adults looking for a simple basic set for guests or a waiting room will also find it a sensible choice.

Buying used, building on

The set is several years old and shows up second-hand now and then. The parts list lets you check whether a listing can be complete, and if there are gaps you will know exactly which bricks are missing. The “What can I build?” tool also tells you which other sets your existing bricks could complete or nearly complete. That way a first set slowly grows into a small collection of its own, one useful batch of bricks at a time.
