Lego Duplo

After reading the brief I decided to tackle the youngest age group, LEGO 'Yumyums'. This is the 2-4 age category and is a based around the parent and child day trip, encouraging the child to experiment with there food. Since this is the youngest age group it requires the younger type of LEGO, 'Duplo'.
Lego Duplo is basically like a regular lego brick. Except, it's enlarged. This makes sure that kids won't be able to swallow it. Like all other lego bricks, it is made out of ABS Plastic (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene.) This brick has a high melting point. Which is why, under extreme heat and flames, it only turns into a black-smoke colour. ABS Plastic can be found in components of a car too, hence why it is a hard material and an expensive brick.

Basic LEGO Duplo Set

After alot of searching I came to the conclusion that no kind soul has posted dimensions of the Duplo figure, so off the the toy shop I went to buy the cheapest set that had a range of different types of bricks and a figure included. Before I got out the vernier callipers I couldn't resist playing about with the bricks so I documented how the bricks all slot together to build a house.
