About Duplo
The LEGO DUPLO theme was introduced as far back as 1969 and is designed for children ages 1 to 5. It features DUPLO figures which are much larger than minifigures and DUPLO blocks which are about twice the length, width, and height of a standard System brick. Like LEGO System, DUPLO also has subthemes that are often junior versions of System themes, like Pirates and Castle and licensed themes like Disney and Super Heros.

Know a caring toddler who loves animals? Treat them with the LEGO® DUPLO® Town Visit to the Vet Clinic (10438) set. This role-play toy for ages 2+ encourages empathy for animals, while helping preschoolers develop lifelong social and emotional learning.
This clinic playset comes with 2 LEGO DUPLO animals – a cute dog and a cat toy – as well as a vet figure. Kids welcome the poorly pets into the clinic and pretend to be the vet whose job it is to make them well. They weigh the pets on the scales, listen to their heartbeat, then carefully wash and groom them.
Preschool kids practice fine motor skills assembling the colored bricks to construct the LEGO model, caring for the animals using the vet’s toy instruments, and rocking the pets in the cradle. With realistic scenes and features, LEGO DUPLO Town sets help toddlers make sense of the environment they see around them by letting them role-play the real world.
