Description

Departure from the playroom

Airports fascinate children because something is always going on: planes take off, luggage rolls along and vehicles dash across the apron. This Duplo set from 2005 brings that bustle into play with 105 pieces. The large bricks are made for younger children and are easy to grip and snap together. The catalogue does not say which vehicles or buildings are included, but the parts list on this page gives you the full picture. The bustle on the apron offers material for long play sessions in which something new keeps happening.

The colours of an airfield

Pearl light grey and white lead, with dark blue and black behind them. That is exactly the palette you know from aircraft, ground vehicles and terminal buildings. The calm greys give a businesslike look, while dark blue adds accents. With 59 different part types the set is remarkably varied for its size. That points to many special shapes, for example for vehicles, roofs or wings, while plain standard bricks are the exception.

Playing with Duplo

No minifigures are included. With Duplo the larger figures from other sets play the pilots, passengers and ground crew. If you already own Duplo people, they can start work straight away. Children invent their own routines: checking in, boarding, taking off. Along the way they pick up how an airport works. That makes the set a good match for nursery-age children who enjoy vehicles and telling stories. Adults can join in by asking where the plane is heading and who is on board.

Expanding and rebuilding

The complete list of all parts with colours and quantities is further down. If a brick is missing you can see straight away what it is called. The “What can I build?” tool checks which other Duplo models your collection allows. Because Duplo bricks work with each other, the airport grows easily: a runway from base plates, a tower from bricks, and the small set becomes an entire playground for aircraft. The set stays in play for a long time and grows with every new idea.
