Advantages: good foundation

Disadvantages: none

Today I am telling you about the large grey Lego base plate 628
I have used this base plate to make constructions stand tall.
This base plate measures 15"x15" /37 cm x 37cm I think that's 48 studs by 48 studs. Lego bricks being either 2, 4, 6 or 8 stud you can imagine this would make a large building.
This grey plate is a concrete grey so good for using as the concrete coloured base for a castle/ house /block of flats. I do not think this size base plate comes in a different colour but you could always surround it by slightly smaller green base plates to make your Lego play scene. This base plate is good as it keeps all the buildings together then and it is good as you can keep your uncompleted model on this (out of the way under the bed maybe) to complete later.

This Lego base plate although the same thickness as the smaller ones is flexible and wobbles /bends a little. I think its size makes it more likely to break a piece of than the smaller Lego base plates...

I found this base plate on sale at the Lego shop http://shop.lego.com/Product/?p=628 for £6.99
There are several other places on line selling this Lego base plate I am sure you can buy it in high street shops too.

Lego is a really good plastic construction system it's easy to clean just wash in hot soapy water. It is safe and helps your child develop educationally. Lego is a long lasting toy my daughteers lego 30 years old is played with by her 5 year old son , good if you can get some in the charity shop .

This base plate is useful to keep all your Childs Lego constructions on they can use their imagination to develop a scene of many different buildings positioning them on the base plate , Lego is good educationally for helping develop your Childs creativity and does help practice the motor skills , fitting the small studs together properly.

Lego is a toy building system. It links together with little studs in each brick.
Lego is a Danish toy company founded in 1932 making step ladders, ironing boards. And children's toys. In 1937 the designers 17 yr old son started designing and making the early Lego toys, Lego is an adaptation of the Danish words that mean play well also in Latin it means I put together.
These pieces are recommended for children aged 5 and over but I think that it's suitable for slightly younger children.

Have fun making your Lego models on this base plate. I think I would make a rocket and space station if I were building Lego on this now.
