Lego is a Danish company in the1969 first duplo bricks appeared then in 1993 the first train tracks. Duple bricks are twice the length height and width of ordinary Lego. They are compatible though to make the transition from Duplo bricks to Lego easy also this compatibility prolongs the play life of Duplo, makes it easier for siblings of different ages and developmental stage to play together.

Lego duplo train are suitable for a child aged between 2 and 5 although slightly younger and slightly older children will also play with them happily.

I love Duplo bricks Duplo is made of a strong plastic it is a safe toy. The curved rail tracks can be bought separately or as part of a duplo train set. To make a 58cm diameter circle you need 12 pieces of curved track. You will find the curved track usually sold in a pack of 6 pieces this Creates 58cm diameter semi-circle. The Lego shop. .. http://shop.lego.com sells the 6 piece pack for £4.89. This is the price most other shops sell this 6 pack for.
The pieces of train track are a grey plastic each piece will fit into another duplo train track piece.
These tracks are really the base of many duplo train sets they enable you to make circles, turn corners. My grandchildren have 12 of these curves to make a circle also some straight pieces to make the track more interesting. The bedroom floor has these curves taking the train around the leg of the bed while the train goes on its journey across the floor under the bed around the toy box.

Your child may think they are playing, but we know better they are working, learning. While playing with Duple train tracks your child is developing their spatial awareness, developing their gross and fine motor skills, practicing their manipulative skills learning how to place and fit things together,
When your child is playing it is also a time you can use to develop their language skills learning from you the correct words for fitting pieces together...
Lego duplo train tracks and trains can be played with by children on their own or in a group. a child learns to play with others cooperatively a two year old will play alongside another but not really with another make sure you have enough pieces to share or two year olds will either get upset when they can not have a piece or they will lose interest . A 3 year old should be playing cooperatively though and be able to play with another child making a complete train scene together not just absorbed with their pieces.
Also this set will help develop a Childs imaginary play. Daddy can go to work on the train, or your child can take the train to go on holiday. Playing out these scenarios reinforces and prepares a child for those experiences, making them safe.

There are many duplo trains and carriages that can run on these tracks the ever popular Thomas as well as standard trains.


Thanks for reading enjoy playing with your children and their toys.
