Description

Big bricks for small hands

Duplo bricks are larger than classic bricks and are easier to grip and push together. This farm set is therefore aimed at toddlers who are only just starting to build. At 102 pieces the box is nicely filled without becoming confusing. Parents can build a farm together with the child, extend it bit by bit and pick up the first words such as barn, roof or fence along the way, all through play rather than lessons. Sturdy bricks also cope well with enthusiastic handling.

Yellow, red, white and blue

The main colours are yellow, red, white and blue, strong primaries that children learn to recognise and name early. Of the 102 pieces only 18 are different types, so the box consists mostly of recurring bricks that children quickly learn to handle. That suits free play: with many identical bricks it is easier to stack, lay out patterns and build towers, and no instruction booklet is strictly needed to get started or to keep going.

A building set, not a fixed model

The name gives it away: this is a building set rather than a finished model with a fixed sequence. You can recreate a farm, but equally a house, a garage or a tower. With Duplo, experimenting matters because it encourages fine motor skills and imagination. The parts list on this page helps if you later want to top up missing bricks or merge the box with other sets that you already have at home.

Mixing with other Duplo sets

Duplo pieces fit together whatever year they come from. The Farm Building Set can therefore be combined with further sets from the same range as your stock grows. With "What can I build?" on Bricoria you can check which other models you could assemble from your collection. Bit by bit the box becomes a foundation that you add to over the years and eventually hand on to a younger sibling or a friend.
