The LEGO Dacta Duplo theme is a subset of the broader LEGO Dacta (later known as LEGO Education) line, designed specifically for educational settings using Duplo bricks. These sets are tailored for younger children and aim to promote hands-on learning and development of foundational skills. Combining the larger, child-friendly Duplo bricks with the educational focus of Dacta, the theme offers sets that facilitate teaching concepts like basic math, storytelling, and understanding of the physical world in classrooms or other learning environments.
1989 LEGO Sets
In 1989, the LEGO Group continued to explore new horizons in the world of play and creativity. The company introduced the LEGO "Model Team" theme, which appealed to older builders and car enthusiasts with its intricately designed, realistic vehicle sets. Furthermore, LEGO launched the "Technic Figures" line, introducing articulated figures that added a new level of realism to Technic creations. Beyond product innovation, the year marked the opening of the first LEGOLAND park in the United States, in Carlsbad, California, further expanding the LEGO brand's presence and offering families immersive LEGO-themed experiences.
