LEGO 2304 DUPLO Classic Large Green Building Plate, Toys for Preschool Kids

Ordering the baseplate is a must if you are to create your duplo dreams for your toddler child. It gives a stable base for you to help your toddler (mine is two) build houses, farms, zoos...essentially boundaries and stability for their block towers! I wish I had 5 of them. They are well priced and an essential element to the duplo kit. After you and your child/children have created something and it is time for other things, you can pick the base plate up and move it to another area, without pulling his masterpiece down, ready for play action at another time. A must for Duplo users!

Yes, this product could be said to be expensive. (I paid £7.99 including Amazon Prime one day delivery.)BUT this baseplate has transformed both how and how often my three year old grandson now plays with his Duplo.I bought him the Duplo Farm set for Christmas and he rarely played with it and always wanted 'help'.The addition of this large baseplate has enabled him to build independently and be experimental with the set. He plays with it now on a daily basis.A really worthwhile purchase - i wish I had bought it earlier!

I bought these at a good price of £7.50 and they are alot larger than expected, great size and easy to build on with Duplo bricks to make houses and a garden, kids love them, I got two and they right away started building onto them and quicker than they would without a base!They are quite flimsy but thats a good thing as been so big they would be easy to break (snap) thinking of maybe getting another two to let them make even larger houses a with a big garden!!The ONLY negative with this was that Amazon sent two in seperate boxes and you could of fit ten of these in each box the boxes was that big, bit of a waste of packaging but doesnt affect the product itself in any way!!Go ahead and buy these for your young ones to have a fun build!

This is great, you can build loads on the area, its so sturdy and my grand kids use it all of the time. Quite expensive but all Lego is. But saying that I still have Lego from 45 years ago thats in perfect condition.We use the Duplo Lego but I presume it works for both.

These bases are really handy to have considering so many Duplo sets do not come with a base plate, but I was surprised at how flimsy this is in comparison to normal base plates (some sets do come with base plates and they are made of the same rigid plastic as the bricks themselves). This base plate is peculiarly thin and flexible, especially considering the price. I have paid £10.49 and it can only have cost pence to make. It is however very good for building on and letting my daughter actually play with her creations without everything falling over, so it is worth having as part of your collection. Unnecessarily expensive for what it is though.

Bought this as it was the first time I had seen a really large base for Duplo - 15" x 15" (382 x 382cm). Great for larger projects - a village, a farm yard, house with garden or any other brilliant idea young children come up with. I bought them (luckily I got 2) from a site in China offering them at less than £6 each and free p&p so couldn't really go wrong. Would be happy paying up to £12 each (same as the 'real' Lego grey baseplate which is the same size). Really good idea.

It is tough and hard enough to make a strong and solid platform, yet flexible enough to make it unbreakable - in case accidentally stepped-on etc. I bought two. If you have lego duplo bricks, This is a must have. It not only adds another dimension and opens all sorts of new possibilities but also helps to keep things tidy. Before I bought these, the lego bricks were all over the place. Besides after playing and constructing things, my kids would have to take them apart and replace them in the box. It would often spoil the fun. Now they don't have to do that. They can leave things as they are, simply push them to one corner and continue the next day.It is worth every single penny! Go for it. You would love it.

Great addition to any Duplo collection. The large board allows children to create models on a much bigger scale, although this may leave you wanting some more bricks depending on how big your existing collection is. We've used these boards in my nurseries for many years and they are robust and stand up to a lot of use.
