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.
1980 LEGO Sets
In 1980, LEGO introduced the LEGO Train theme, building upon previous train sets but now incorporating 12-volt systems for electrification. The year also marked the debut of the LEGO Classic Space theme, adding a new dimension to LEGO's portfolio with sets that focused on futuristic and extraterrestrial exploration. Additionally, the Technic line, which emphasized more advanced building techniques with specialized parts, continued its growth.
