LEGO DUPLO Community People Set Lego Education 20 Piece Set 9224

addition to our toy room. They don't need to be played with only with the block sets. The kids love them in many settings. Sturdy and love the array of diversity

My son loves his lego people, and I love that they can go in the bath or the dishwasher. The variety of people is nice - would be great if there were more women, but at least there are a few.

This isn't two sets of ten as another review implied. Instead there are two fire fighters of different races. Two zoo keepers, one male and one female. A grandma and a grandpa. You get the idea. Interestingly, there is a lone criminal in the bunch. He's wearing prison stripes, a black cap, and has a number across his chest. An odd choice for the "people in your neighborhood."When I split up the twenty figures so that each of my two nephews would have ten, I discovered another issue. There are only five female figures. I was careful to make things as even as possible with the various careers and ethnicities. (Not difficult since the set only includes two black figures and two vaguely South Asian figures, both male.) I solved the problem by swapping out the escaped prisoner with a female figure from another set. Lego Cool Hand Luke will now be busting rocks beside my computer.

These are the perfect size for toddlers. Big enough to handle and very sturdy. My grandsons spend hours playing with them in a variety of vehicles. They are able to make them sit down, turn their heads, etc.

I ordered this product thinking it was the small Lego people. These are sized for toddlers, not older kids.

This toy is a really great concept however I find it sexist. There are only 5 women (a doctor, a zookeeper, a lady in a jogging outfit, a senior citizen in casual clothes & women in a business casual outfit)out of MANY MANY more males who are mostly people who work (except for the senior citizen male and a jailbird which I think is very funny and why not - they're part of society too and children see them occasionally doing public service). This obviously does not represent the real world. I would have liked to see half women workers (a woman police officer, pilot etc.).

To be honest, I was a little surprised with how expensive this was. My 2 year old son loves playing with "the people", so I am happy he has it, I just can't believe it was so expensive.

I bought this along with a big set of duplo blocks for my kids (2 and 4) and we use them every day. There is a great variety and more people than you could ever need! The people make building with legos even more fun!

The Lego Duplo people match perfectly to the Lego Duplo surfaces which makes it great for children to set up their imaginative scenes, without the annoying drop when moving the tiles. Really good.

My grandson has great fun playing with his duplo. It really fires his imagination and it keeps him occupied for ages.
