Play like you used to with LEGO® DUPLO® bricks

It’s time to take a trip down memory lane and rediscover your inner toddler. Be prepared for a wave of nostalgia as you remember the playtimes that excited you when you were young – and share them with your own child using LEGO® DUPLO® bricks. 

First, invite the family into the fun to help you remember what little you were really into. Your child will love hearing your family members talk about the games you enjoyed, and what you were like as a toddler! If this isn’t an excuse to bring out the family album, we don’t know what is. 

Now you’ve had a laugh reminiscing; it’s time to ramp up the fun by recreating the playtime you once loved with your little one. Here are a few classic play-scenarios to get you started…

Tickets please!

All aboard the nostalgia train! If you loved spending hours building your own train tracks for carriages to ride along, why not build a LEGO DUPLO train scene with your own toddler? It’s just the ticket for an afternoon of fun.

Mini mayor

If you embraced your inner architect as a child, get building a LEGO DUPLO town with your toddler. From fire stations to florists, town squares to parks, there are plenty of aspects of a typical town you could zoom into for you both to get creative with.

Café culture

Babycinos might not have been around when you were knee-high, but you can order yourself one (or several) in your own LEGO DUPLO café. If tea parties were your thing when you were a child, why not help your toddler build their own LEGO DUPLO eatery and help them act out different scenarios. They can get their LEGO DUPLO figures involved as eager customers, too. 

Animal mad

If you imagined being an animal keeper in yesteryear, why not think about creating a LEGO DUPLO animal scenario with your own child? You could build a pigsty for the farm or an enclosure for some ferocious felines at the zoo. Wild fun!

Flower power

Do visions of flowers, fairies and dens make you chime with childhood nostalgia? Then it’s time to create a LEGO DUPLO secret garden full of wonder with your toddler. Maybe you’ll add a vegetable patch, garden critters or even a figure sunbathing. It’s a sure way to bring some sunshine to your day. 

The wheel deal

Perhaps you spent your childhood zooming toy cars around the house and want to soak up all the excitement of those fast-paced games again with your little one? From speed bumps to lookout towers and even an audience of figures, when creating a racetrack with LEGO DUPLO, there are plenty of ways to fuel the need for speed.
