LEGO® DUPLO® Bucket Green

Description

Basic bricks for free building

Open a bucket of Duplo bricks and there is no instruction booklet, only a heap of possibilities. That is exactly what defines the Bucket Green. Its 90 pieces are large, colourful and easy to press together. Children turn them into houses, roads or simply tall towers. Because nothing is prescribed, imagination decides what appears. That trains dexterity and spatial thinking almost as a side effect, and adults can join in without following a set order of steps.

Just eight types

The choice of parts is especially tidy: the 90 pieces consist of only eight different types. Many identical bricks form the base, with a few variants added. That is ideal for beginners because children do not need to search for long. For collectors or parents checking a second-hand set, the short list is practical as well. This page shows each of the eight types, so you can quickly compare and see whether everything is still in the bucket.

Red, green, yellow and orange

The four main colours are strong and easy to tell apart. Green gives the set its name and probably shapes the bucket itself. Red, yellow and orange bring warmth to any model. Children like to use these colours for sorting and counting, first all the red bricks, then all the yellow ones. There are no minifigures, but figures from other Duplo sets can easily be added, since they all use the same stud system and fit without trouble.

Extend rather than rebuy

Since the bucket appeared back in 2005, you will usually get it second-hand. If you already own other Duplo sets, the "What can I build?" tool on Bricoria shows which models your pooled stock can make. That makes the Bucket Green a handy, inexpensive top-up when a bigger project simply lacks basic bricks. The parts list stays useful too, should you later need to track down individual pieces.
