The 9 Best Lego Sets for Kids of 2024 | Reviews by Wirecutter

From our years of covering Lego sets for kids, combined with collective personal experience as a staff full of caretakers and gift-givers, we know that there’s no single Lego set that every kid will love. Interest in any particular Lego set always lies with the individual.

The latest update of this guide includes a couple of our findings from that day. An upcoming larger revision will incorporate several more new picks.

We didn’t test Duplo sets. For kids ages 1½ to 4, chunkier Duplo blocks are a great place to start. It’s tough to elicit critical feedback from toddlers, but the littlest ones on hand during our in-office testing enjoyed the Duplo Number Train 10954 , the Duplo Brick Box 10913 , and the Duplo Town Alphabet Truck 10421 .

Of the five currently available sets, we were lucky to be sent the Bunnie’s Outdoor Activities and Isabelle’s House Visit set. Both give a good sample of what to expect from the other two sets. The joy of Animal Crossing is making your town or island your own and interacting with the people in it. And you can do that here with these sets.

The modular layout of the sets means you can lay out things however you want; you only have to follow the instructions to build the buildings.

I recommend getting some base plates to put the build on; however, the modular system is very fragile, so many tiny tools and items from the game are included, and they just go all over the place. Choosing which window designs for Isabelle’s house also brings more of an Animal Crossing feeling to the LEGO.

There are many little hidden easter eggs as well; the balloon that ⁘floats⁘ aboveIsabelle’s house has a present inside it hidden by a little swing top. There are items hidden in the trees, just like in the games. Everything is also detailed to a high quality; there are no stickers here ⁘ everything is printed on, even on the tiny Nook Phone. Even though Isabelle’s house is technically only half her house, it does mean the back is open to play ⁘ it’s a doll house in LEGO form.

The builds are pretty straightforward, which is what you’d expect for a set targeting the age range it targets. The set targets people aged 6+; anyone younger will struggle with the modular system’s fragility. Also, if you have big boofhead man hands like mine, you’re going to curse it.

If you’re an Animal Crossing super fan, you’ve probably already picked up the entire set of these, but if you’re on the fence about it all, it seems like no matter what set you pick, they’re all pretty great ⁘ just choose the one with your favourite characters.
