Which Lego Duplo set for 4 year old?

[fraggle73]

Can anyone recommend a lego duplo set for a 4 year old. He already has the farm. Was deciding between the fire station or hospital

[EverybodysScaryEyed]

I would recommend moving up to Lego and not buying Duplo

DS is 4 and loves the lego now - he can do so much more with it

it is 5-12 (the city range i think) but he is more than capable

I would just be cautious of spending money on duplo if he is going to switch up soon

I second that! My ds is 3.10 and loves lego. We have just bought him a small starter set which will be expanded over his bday and xmas (both in dec). He outgrew the bigger/younger bricks quite a while ago and hasnt played with any for ages.
You can buy sets for 4yr olds which are a bit simpler!

DS loves this and no more fiddly than the fire station which is 4-7

The firestation is fab - ds loves it. He also loves the shop! He has some smaller lego too but much prefers the duplo.
