MANILA, Philippines — As the holiday season approaches, and in time for Children's Month in October, parents of toddlers and young kids have an exciting reason to light up their children's faces with joy.
Beloved toy brand, the Lego Group, is inviting families to embark on a delightful journey with their sets. With numerous learning options available for kids, the world-famous toy company doubles down on its engaging and enjoyable approach.
Cris Opeña, Senior Brand Manager for Ban Kee Trading, the Lego Group Philippines distributor, echoes this, sharing: "As we usher in the holiday season... Our mission is to turn playtime into a magical journey where children can build, create, and discover the joy of learning while crafting their own holiday tales. After all, learning should be as fun as opening a present.”
Here are some of the benefits of playing with brick sets:
- Gives kids a break from gadgets
In a time when screens often dominate children's attention, the Lego Group reaffirms its commitment to hands-on, creative learning. The playsets offer an opportunity to break away from screens and make holiday memories that will last a lifetime. These inspire kids to build, design, and tell their own unique holiday stories through the enchantment of colorful bricks.
- Harnesses imagination, creativity
Think of this set as a treasure chest of vibrant bricks, perfect for crafting personalized holiday scenes and decorations. It's a canvas for young builders to bring their unique holiday visions to life, making the season extra special.
- STEM learning, quality bonding time
With the sets, the possibilities are endless. As your child builds towering structures and imaginative holiday tales, they're also learning about spatial reasoning, problem-solving, and storytelling. It';s a chance to nurture their budding engineering skills while crafting holiday memories together.
The oversized Nature-Inspired Holiday Magic Duplo bricks are perfect for those tiny hands eager to join in the holiday crafting. Building simple holiday scenes with your toddler isn't just about constructing; it's an opportunity for early Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) learning and quality bonding time.
- Encourages teamwork
As your child grows, their creativity knows no bounds. With larger Duplo bricks, they can dive into collaborative play and imaginative storytelling. It's an excellent choice to create moments of bonding and shared excitement during the festive season.
Holiday Blooms is a charming set that introduces kids to nature and organic concepts while letting them enjoy the beauty of the outdoors during the festive season. It's a unique way to connect children with nature and add an educational touch to holiday celebrations.

As a bonus, select Toy Kingdom stores are offering gifts with purchase (GWP) promotions. Buy eligible Duplo or Classic sets and receive exclusive gifts, expanding your collection with unique items.
