(A Guest post by my brother:)
Building
buildings with blocks is one thing but building animals and characters is more
fun, wouldn’t you agree? Well, my nephew does. We thought it wasn’t worth
buying these LEGO blocks (LEGO Duplo, Read and Build) that had just 17 blocks
in it with a storybook for 1299 INR, but when there was an offer on it, we
thought, What the heck, let’s give it a
go!
And so we
came home with this set, unsure of whether it was worth the buy. We didn’t open
it right away but my sister took it to her home (which is in a different city).
Well, I forgot all about it during our telephonic calls. When I went to her
home almost after a month, I was surprised to see that my nephew was able to
build all the characters that came in it. It was so wonderful to see him build
them so dexterously.
He was able
to look at the illustrations in the book and build them right away! This made me
wonder how much research went behind the creation of this set.
About the set,
you can build four characters with it, namely, Caterpillar, Snail, Frog and
Beetle. It’s a good idea to even gift it to someone – you make that kid learn
colors, hand coordination, and a story! That’s a huge package exploding out of
this small package! Well, watch the video and you’d agree with me (Mind you,
that this video was taken within a day or two of the buy; when I watched him
build these, he remembered the characters even without the help of the
storybook!)
