3 super cool creations you can build with your grandkids

3 super cool creations you can build with your grandkids

It’s been said that children and grandparents are natural allies. It might seem unlikely given their age gap, differing energy levels and interests, but grandparents and children genuinely share a special bond. For starters, grandparents are more likely to be in a position to give their grandkids a greater level of attention and emotional support – and they have time to play!

If you’re a grandparent of little kids, you might have heard that Grandparents’ Day is coming up on Sunday, October 27. So, if you’re planning a catch-up with your grandchildren to mark the occasion, or just want to do something fun and creative with them, we can help you get inspired with fantastic creative projects you can build together from LEGO® DUPLO®.

Lego has many creative projects to build with the grandkids

1. Have a tropical island adventure!

A tropical jungle awaits you with hours of imaginative play exploring a world of wild animals, fun moveable features and tree-swinging adventures! Build your caretaker’s cottage and your own family tree house, then use the pulley system to lift up supplies. There’s a turning bridge to move into position and a vine for the monkey to swing on, plus a menagerie of DUPLO animal toys joining a caretaker, a traveller and his son, a camera, bunch of bananas, a pineapple and a variety of jungle plants to hide in. The LEGO DUPLO Tropical Island is a large and varied set that provides endless opportunities for your pre-schooler to play, learn and express themselves.

2. Discover a wonderful world of animals

Pack your LEGO suitcase and travel the world together as you introduce little ones to a world of animals and environments with the LEGO DUPLO World Animals playset. Go on a safari across the African savannah as you pretend to photograph lions and giraffes, spot cute little creatures and the bright toucan as you canoe along a woodland river, build a sandcastle and catch a wave on a tropical beach, go whale watching at the south pole and walk like a penguin… With a captivating range of toy animals, buildings, vehicles, characters and accessories, this globe-spanning educational toy for toddlers contains endless opportunities to engage and inspire any pre-schooler.

3. See what’s under the sea…

Most kids love water play, so this set lets water babies enjoy some splishy-splashy fun, too!  The LEGO DUPLO Submarine Adventure is imaginative play that also helps them develop key skills while they’re taking a bath. This educational bath toy provides lots to learn and talk about while they pretend to film the whale and fish with the toy camera. At bath time, the yellow (of course!) submarine floats and bubbles on the surface beneath the squawking seagulls as the whale glides by and the clown fish blows bubbles below amid the seaweed. Suitable for bath time or fun on dry land. With two diver figures to share the fun, who knows where your next underwater adventure will take you and your little submariner?

Discover the wide world of LEGO and other fantastic projects to inspire kids from age 2 to 92.
