Hmm - I was wondering what to do with those tires. I did use tires once in a power plant so maybe that is a good idea. Luckily, ALL my relatives know I want LEGO and they comply!

No wooden blocks, go with LEGO Primo, then you can transition into Duplo. The Primos have bricks that will allow the Duplos to connect to them. My son was stacking the Primos at 6 months. Well it's more like I was building and he was smashing down. (...) (23 years ago, 17-Jun-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.people)

(...) I agree with James.

I think that the reason Duplo isn't recommended for infants isn't because of choking hazard, but because of the sharp corners. Primo pieces have rounded corners. BTW, Primo also makes a great toy for dogs. Our Boston Terrier absolutely loves chewing (...) (23 years ago, 18-Jun-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.people)
