What the testers said: “Lovely bright yellow that all the children recognised as Lego. It encouraged tidying up, was good for shared creative play and looked good on the shelf. The children very much enjoyed simply playing with this product – just putting bricks in and trying to see which ones would go down to the next level. Lego Sort and Store is bright, fun storage which is appealing to children and a great addition to a child’s room.”

What the testers said: “We used the E Z Fort both inside and outside to make different dens – the children absolutely loved this activity. We liked the simple colour coded tabs that helped you piece your construction together, although they did not seem very strong. A great physical activity for young children.”
