New LEGO® DUPLO® Sets Encourage Fun and Educational Mealtimes Through Imaginative Play

The LEGO® Group has launched a new LEGO® DUPLO® Garden range that helps parents engage their toddlers through creative play, making mealtimes fun and relaxed. The new LEGO® DUPLO® Garden range is expertly designed with fun narratives, bright colours and engaging characters that include a variety of organic vegetables and fruits to facilitate conversations on balanced diets and cultivate healthy eating habits. In a world of endless possibilities, LEGO® DUPLO® gives toddlers a big start in life by supporting their natural discovery and learning process which helps to develop essential life skills such as building confidence, self-expression, and resilience. Mealtimes can be stressful and challenging for parents, especially for those with young children but they can also provide an opportune time to teach little ones about nutrition in a fun manner. With the new LEGO® DUPLO® Garden range, parents can keep mealtimes relaxed for little ones while allowing them to learn about food and vegetables through imaginative play. Amanda Abel, Melbourne-based paediatric psychologist and registered Sequential-Oral-Sensory (SOS) feeding therapist has been working with The LEGO Group through digital media network TotallyAwesome to help parents cultivate creative and educational play with their toddlers through LEGO® DUPLO® bricks. She shares actionable ways for parents to incorporate active and creative play into mealtimes with sets from the new LEGO® DUPLO® Garden range: Play a fruit and vegetable guessing game by placing items from 10982 LEGO DUPLO My First Fruit and Vegetable Tractor in a bag and allowing children to guess the item by touching it.
