LEGO® Play with Braille - Spanish Alphabet

Description

A Spanish alphabet, accents included

Unlike some other language versions in the series, the Spanish alphabet brings extra characters such as ñ and accented vowels like á, é and í. The 287 pieces cover these fully, so children pick up not just the base alphabet but also features specific to Spanish spelling, all through touch. Each brick shows the braille pattern on top with the printed letter alongside it, so sighted and blind children can work together on the same piece. With 45 unique elements, this set is slightly more varied than base alphabets without accents, which can make it especially useful for bilingual families or Spanish lessons.

Colour coding across the series

Red, yellow, white and dark azure give the set a clear visual structure, helping learners spot related groups such as vowels or accented letters at a glance. This colour logic runs through the whole Play with Braille series, so anyone who already owns another language set will feel at home here straight away. With no minifigures included, the set stays deliberately functional, focused entirely on the 287 learning pieces rather than a play scene. The result is less a diorama and more a hands-on alphabet toolkit that can be rebuilt again and again.

From the kitchen table to the classroom

At home, the set is enough to spell early Spanish words, practise names or play simple guessing games. In Spanish classes or in support services for blind and partially sighted children, it can be used to make letters tangible in a focused way. The parts list on this page shows all 45 elements with colour and quantity, useful for reordering pieces or comparing this set with other language editions such as Italian. That overview is especially handy when collecting several sets, helping you spot repeated bricks and plan your collection.

Comparing parts across the series

Anyone building up a collection of Play with Braille sets benefits from checking this page closely, since it lists all 45 elements of 40724 individually with colour and quantity. That makes it easy to spot which base bricks overlap with the Italian or other language sets and which pieces, such as ñ or accented letters, appear only in the Spanish alphabet. It simplifies reordering individual bricks and building out a complete multilingual collection, without needing to take every set apart separately to compare.
