Lego Disney Sets Are Popular Toys

by blackspanielgallery

The Lego learning toys are more likely to be played with when they are sued with a Disney theme. Unless Legos are used the educational toy value is lost.

Two of the most popular toy groups are Lego building sets and Disney themed toys. Imagine the excitement when a child opens a present that is a Disney themed Lego building set. As Lego grew over the years, so did the intricate specialty sets, and they now include some of the popular Disney products.

The act of building with a Lego set can involve a great amount of creativity, and if a set is used it can teach following directions. If directions are not followed, the intended result will not be achieved. This is an important lesson for a child. And, Lego sets teach how things can be connected to form something new and wonderful.

In addition to being a teaching tool, Lego blocks can be useful in developing dexterity by the fact they require fine motor skills. In addition, hand to eye coordination is simultaneously developed.

These skills can be essential in development, so children should benefit in several ways from working with Lego blocks. Duplo blocks address the same developmental advantages in an age appropriate manner for younger children. Hence, Lego and Duplo blocks are much more than toys. The use of material that interest most children, such as Disney subject matter, can be an aid in providing the interest for the children to pick up the blocks and attempt reaching a final result.

Another advantage to buying a Lego set. A canister of Lego blocks, or a combination of several Lego sets and Lego block canisters is the opportunity to work with the child. You can develop a bond with the child. Sets like Lego sets offer a bonding opportunity with something that is of interest to both the adult and the child.

The Disney Lego Sets

Educational Toys for Kids

The first step needed to find a Disney Lego set is to know what to look for, and then you must know where to find it.  The variety of Disney Lego sets is great.  Some of those I have found on Amazon are given below.

 

Lego has groups of sets, and they follow certain popular themes.

 

There are the Princess sets that focus on the castles and other things associated with Disney Princesses. They include the Lego Disney Rapunzel’s Creativity Tower, Princess Rapunzel's Market Visit, Princess Merida's Highland Games, Princess Ariel’s Magical Kiss, Cinderella’s Dream Carriage, and Cinderella’s Romantic Castle.

 

Other themes include Lego Disney Planes Dusty and Chug, Planes Skipper’s Flight School, and Planes Ripslinger’s Air Race.

 

Never Land Hideout from Jake and the Never Land Pirates, Jake’s Treasure Hunt, and Jake’s Pirate Ship Bucky are other interesting sets to a child who likes Jake and the Never Land pirates.

 

Some Toy Story 3 Sets are also available.

 

Search and find your favorite by entering Amazon and looking around.

Lego Sets Can Be Fun for Adults

Star Wars Lego Sets

Disney Star Wars Lego Learning Toys

Disney now owns Star Wars.  And, of course, there are Star Wars Lego sets.  These have multiple reasons for being popular, and make wonderful gifts for children.

Lego Pirates of the Caribbean

Another popular Disney theme is Pirates of the Caribbean.  A child can have quite a pleasant time building a pirate ship.

Giant Boxes of Lego Pieces

Canisters of Lego Blocks

Sometimes a piece gets lost. The pieces are small. Or, for real creativity you may want additional pieces to vary the design provided by a set. For this reason Lego sells large buckets of generic pieces. They may not help replace a specialized piece, but they can certainly add to what can be done with a design.

So, what if you lose a specialized piece? You would need to order a replacement for it. Many can be found on Amazon.  And, when you consider shipping cost, and individual piece prices, if the set is small you might just replace the entire set. Of course, larger more expensive sets may be best handled with piece replacements.

Lego Duplo Sets

Educational Toys for Young Kids

Duplo sets are sets with larger pieces for younger children. Many regular Lego pieces can be swallowed, and should not be used by unsupervised small children. But, they will want to join the fun, so Duplo sets are the answer.  The larger pieces are also easier to manipulate, a plus for a small child just starting to gain dexterity. 

Disney Duplo sets do exist, and there are several. They include Princess Sleeping Beauty’s Fairy Tale, Princess Cinderella’s Carriage, Princess Cinderella’s Castle, Planes Fire and Rescue Team Building Toy, and Jake Peter Pan’s Visit.  There is even a Mickey and Friends bucket of Lego pieces.

Great Toys for Kids

Lego related Disney themed products also exist, such as the Disney Posters for Children and Kids Cars 2 pack of eight wall posters. Also available are Lego Disney Xbox games such as Lego Pirates of the Caribbean.

 

Never underestimate the importance of a Lego table.  It keeps the blocks off the floor, and they do hurt when stepped on.

 

Now Laser Pegs are out, which are similar to Lego sets but have lighting features.

I am familiar with Laser Pegs that are compatible with Lego blocks. If that is what you mean I have an article on them from last year.

And the sets keep getting more interesting. It is unbelievable how many sets there are.
My son had buckets of blocks. Sets were not needed, Creativity is best when allowed to follow its own course.

Lego is timeless.
My husband is 63 and he saved his Lego for our children who have saved it for their children Therefore our grandchildren are playing with some of my husband's Lego. It is reputed to be very good for educational development. My husband and sons are very mathematical, my husband and oldest son being mathematicians. My youngest son has A level Maths; I blame Lego for all this Maths :)

I steam cleaned my husband's Lego for our grandchildren. ... and disinfected it too but I didn't bother doing that for my children when they played with it! :)
Grandchildren are even more precious.
