This summer, we’ll see the next LEGO DUPLO movie set with Frozen which includes figures of Anna and Elsa along with Olaf. In the set, there’s a color changing switch which is the play feature of it.

BILLUND, January 29, 2019:Today we mark 50 years since theLEGO Group unveiled its inaugural large brick for small hands (yes that would be 1969) – the same year the first person set foot on the moon. You can decide which was the bigger moment for mankind (although could Apollo 11 be dismantled and rebuilt into a racing car?) but, either way, below are some highlightsfromhalf a century of big building fun.

Ludamus! A Latin origin
Did you know the nameDUPLO®derives from the Latin word ‘duplex’meaning double? The name first featured on two LEGO® DUPLO sets launched in 1969 – set no. 510 and no. 511 if you like specifics.

November 18, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

As 2018 is coming to a close, various retailers have started to upload images to their respective servers for the 2019 LEGO sets that are set to be released in January. We’ve already seen the Spider-Man and Overwatch ones but this next one is something that we didn’t expect but it is a LEGO DUPLO set. It is called My First Minnie Build (10897) and it’s basically a DUPLO build of Minnie Mouse. From looking at the back of the box, it also has a couple of parts to change out Minnie’s outfit from pink to red. It’s a cute little set that gives the younger audience an introduction to both LEGO and Disney.

LEGO has partnered up with Amazon in their efforts to integrate physical and digital play by using Amazon Alexa to tell stories while interacting with the bricks. By downloading the LEGO DUPLO stories onto Alexa, you can instruct it to tell the stories while also encouraging kids to learn through the bricks.

Adding to the LEGO® portfolio of integrated physical and digital play experiences, LEGO® DUPLO® Stories has today been released on Amazon Alexa as play starter inspiration for our youngest audience and their parents.

Billund, Denmark (May 2nd, 2018): Launched today in the US and UK, LEGO® DUPLO® Stories will be one of the first Alexa skills to combine physical play with Amazon’s Alexa voice service. The skill is developed as an interactive storytelling experience to ignite fun explorative play for the youngest children, aged 2–5, and their parents.

Using any Alexa device, such as Amazon Echo or Echo Dot, children will be able to respond and actively engage with the LEGO DUPLO Stories, all designed to encourage active participation and help nurture children’s inquisitive instinct of learning through play. LEGO DUPLO Stories covers 10 themes based on new as well as existing LEGO DUPLO products. Together with their parents, toddlers can choose between five vehicle or five animal stories, and define the route of the story, while guided by Alexa. The different stories will help advance children’s constructive, exploratory and roleplay skills with tasks ranging from numeric exercises to colour recognition, articulation practice and creative building challenges.
