Advantages: Good for promoting racial harmony

Disadvantages: None

Let me tell you about the Mobilo family we have at work. This family is a black ethnic family. A mother, a father, a girl and a boy.
This family have much fun playing with the children they are plastic heads .and blocks.

There are two families that you can buy from Mobilo this ethnic one and a white family too, in fact you can buy them both together for racial harmony. The picture dooyoo has used is of both white and ethnic family in this ethnic set you do not get the white heads as well

What you get in this ethnic family set is the 4 heads each head is broken with eyes nose and mouth, a neutral expression. They have dark hair. They come with two single mobilo cube blocks one yellow, one blue. Then there is a double red block. The yellow cube has a bell in it. I guess that could represent the baby of the family.

I have not got one at home to measure but I guestimate a single cube about 3 or 4cm square the heads 2 to3 cm tall .

In the pictures mum and dad are sat on the red block the children on the single ones. But there is no reason why as the heads are removable. So the girl could sit by mum and dad and the boy go of on their single bricks.

Mobilo bricks are fantastic for little fingers ideal for children aged 3 and upwards. I think a younger child would be able to use mobilo bricks piling and sorting but the heads on this set a little small maybe and might just get swallowed stuck in throat . I think a child up to eight would still be happy playing with these, its all dependent on a child's physical and mental development.

These bricks are much simpler than Lego easier to put together. I know special needs children find them a lot easier to construct. However this set of ethnic people does not include connectors for bricks so other than the heads which do not need connectors and the bricks there is nothing else in the bag they come in.

These people bricks are made of a plastic. They are easy to wash. They are hard wearing will last many play hours.
These people bricks can be used with other mobilo bricks can sit on mobilo cars or anything your child imagination builds.
I like these people your ethnic child will be able to relater to them and your non ethnic child will use them and accept them as just other people.

These bricks will stimulate your Childs imagination and their creativity. They will help them understand the world .Will practice their fine motor skills.

I think these ethnic heads are good would be ideal to add to a basic mobilo brick set. So where can you get these from? Well I looked on line and at https://www.sbs-educational.co.uk they are £9.99 including vat
