Anything is possible with good friends, a stockpile of chai tea and lots of entertainment and snacks for the kids, right?  We had a ton of fun hosting a LEGO DUPLO playdate…the kids (in true kid form) dumped out every single box, played, snacked, played, snacked, played, snacked (rinse and repeat twenty times over!)

LEGO DUPLO is celebrating the launch of three brand-new Toddler Toy products!! Each new kit includes slightly bigger bricks, all new colors and decorations…perfect for little fingers and big imaginations. Our tiny friends ranged in age from 9 months all the way up to 5 years old, but these new LEGO DUPLO products were a huge hit for all the children.

The new toys that we received for our LEGO DUPLO playdate included:

• Toddler Build and Play Cubes
• Toddler Build and Pull Along
• Toddler Starter Building Set

We also received a LEGO DUPLO Brick Box and LEGO DUPLO Bricks and Books for everyone to enjoy. Since all the toys are gender neutral and animal themed there was fun pieces for everyone. The main point of the playdate was to visit, inspire play, enjoy each other’s company and all in a safe environment with non-toxic toys. However,  many moms weren’t aware that LEGO DUPLO is non-toxic and free of PVC, lead, phthalate and BPA!

We had lots of bright colored fruits and veggies for the little ones to enjoy…

The mamas had a continuous flow of chai tea 😉

But the hit of the party was our gluten-free ice-cream cone “treat” cups! I simply filled a gluten free cone with “treats” like organic, gluten free peanut butter puff cereal, trail mix and gluten free animal crackers! And of course a few white chocolate chips for something sweet.

Then back to playing….

and reading….

and lots of exploring!

We cranked up our DUPLO Jams CD and kept it on repeat for nearly 3 hours. I forgot about most of the games I had planned since the kids were running around having so much fun, but we did sneak in a quick game of “I Spy the LEGO guy” for the aged 3 to 5 crew:

Everyone had a great time and headed home nice and tired for afternoon naps! A big thanks to LEGO DUPLO for sponsoring our playdate!
