Description

Playing doctor

This set belongs to Duplo, the range with extra-large bricks for small children. It shows a hospital where children can act out visits, treatments and emergencies. The 112 pieces are bigger than ordinary bricks and easier to grip and push together. There is no minifigure; Duplo uses larger play figures instead, which you can add from other sets. That includes beds, doors and signs which children recognise from everyday life.

Clear colours for small hands

White, red, blue and yellow are the main colours. White gives the clinical impression, red recalls ambulances and the cross symbol, and blue and yellow keep things cheerful. The 50 different part types in 112 pieces show that the model offers more than simple bricks, such as roof parts, doors and accessories. How many pieces of each type are included is shown in the parts list further down. The colours are strong and easy to tell apart, so even younger children understand at once what goes where.

Building together

Duplo is made for the age at which children are only starting to build. The hospital works well as a joint project: adults can snap together the larger parts while children choose colours or join in. Afterwards you have a model for inventing role-play games without any prior skills. Visits to the doctor in particular can be worked through playfully in this way. Siblings can build at the same time and share the roles, for example as doctor, patient or ambulance driver.

Combining with other Duplo sets

All Duplo bricks fit one another, so the hospital can be extended with vehicles, animals or houses from other Duplo sets. Through “What can I build?” on this page you can find ideas for what else you can put together with the parts from this set and your collection, from an ambulance to a doctor's surgery. In this way the hospital keeps growing with every new set and stays interesting for a long time.
