LEGO DUPLO Legoville 5601 Fire Station


LEGO DUPLO Legoville 5601 Fire Station

Lego Duplo Fire StationThis LEGO DUPLO Legoville 5601 Fire Station is my grandson’s favorite set of LEGOs I’ve got him so far and he spends hours upon hours playing with it! Join your child and rekindle your own experiences with LEGOs as you get the pleasure of watching his mind tick away with ideas and creativity. Build something with him and be a part of it. It’ll come back to you. It came back to me and I had so much fun watching him put the pieces together with all his excitement.

This set has 72 pieces total with dimensions in inches at 18.7 x 15.0 x 3.7. It weighs 3.6 pounds and is as popular as ever. This fun and entertaining LEGO set is appropriate for children ages 2 – 5 years of age and can help to bring the creativity out of them time and time again. Watch as they build this awesome little fire station with the slide from the roof and the truck with actual working sirens! Attach on the accessories trailer then activate the sirens as you rush off to the rescue, when the fire has been put out park your truck back safely in the station.

LEGOs have been around for decades and are still as popular as they ever were with new sets coming out all the time. Each and every set supplies endless hours of intense calculating, concentration and building and all the while helping to prepare your little ones for the real world of calculating, concentration and building and for using their own unique creativity.

The LEGO Fire Station is of the Duplo product line that was created back in 1969 for the smaller hands of the younger children. The size is more appropriate and easier for them to hold correctly. I highly recommend this set for your little guy because it is the same LEGO quality (excellent) as always and will provide tons of fun and creativity for both of you.
