Customer Reviews
Although most Brio is not recommended for children younger than 3 years old, this set is designated as being OK from 18 months old up. We bought it for our son's second birthday, and he absolutely adores it. The pieces all seem very robust, and there is relatively limited scope for him to do much damage with the pieces if he throws a tantrum. For instance the house is made of a soft material. Learning how to run the train on and off the tracks, keep it on the track, run it through the house and use the right magnet on each carriage to connect to the others has proved to be an absorbing exercise in physical and mental dexterity. Apart from the elegant simplicity of the tracks itself, all the pieces are brightly coloured with familiar fruits on the side of the carriages.
Of course, the real beauty of this system is that you can carry on adding track, rolling stock and accessories as the child gets older. Talking of the track, despite it seeming to be a relatively straightforward piece of construction, we have found that other makes of Brio-like track are of noticeably poorer manufacture and in some cases (such as that from Ikea) do not interconnect well. You may well pay more for the Brio brand name, but judging by the quality of this set, it is probably worth the extra.
This was what our 2 year old grandson enjoyed most of all his birthday presents. Just like any little boy he loves transport and having a basic set to build on was ideal. No doubt it will be added to at Christmas and beyond. When I used to teach 4-5 year olds, a parent donated an already well used Brio train set. It was a favourite toy with all the children and it stood up to many further years of play by many boys and girls. The magnetic engine and trucks also add to the fun - and educational quality of this set.
