Advantages: Sturdy, encourages creativity

Disadvantages: Can be expensive

Duplo can be expensive, as with all Lego products, but this lasts such a longer time than most toys in both children's enthusiasm for playing with it and in it's general construction. My son was given a box box for his 2nd birthday and still plays with it 3 years later! No pieces have got broken, despite being thrown around, attempts to chew etc, and the ideas for playing with it are endless - great for their creative skills, and even if they build a tower just to knck it down, it helps them understand cause and effect, perfect for preschool science!

If you are thinkinga about Duplo as a present, I would highly recommend it, especially if the child is not your own because if they get more from someone else it only adds to the fun! Also you get a pretty big box for them to unwrap, always good!

My son is also into the main Lego, but like playing with this for making 'big models', eg great for making into a ship to carry his pirate figures around!

Summary: Good sturdy product, great fun for small hands
