Collect them all and build a world of fun!Since 1930; Fisher-Price has been in business to create toys that fascinate and stimulate a child's imagination. Fisher-Price was founded in 1930; hardly the best time to launch a new business as the shadows of the Depression still loomed over American business. Still; Herman Fisher; Irving Price and Helen Schelle combined their diverse manufacturing and retailing experience to create a toy company and confidently brought 16 wooden toys to the International Toy Fair in New York City. The whimsical nature and magical surprises of those first Fisher-Price toys quickly caught on and became the hallmarks of Fisher-Price ever since. Fisher-Price believes in the potential of children and in the importance of a supportive environment in which they can grow; learn; and get the best possible start in life. Fisher-Price supports today's families with young children through our breadth of products that includes GeoTrax; Imaginext; Little People; Laugh and Learn; Thomas the Tank; Thomas and Friends; Elmo; Dora the Explorer; Go Diego Go; Sesame Street; Smart Cycle; Ni Hao Kai-Lan; Toy Story and other learning toys and pretend play items.

We love Trio

Review Date: December 26, 2009

Reviewer: Michelle Allen, Montana

We have 4 Trio sets and we love them all. They are very durable and easy to use. My 3 year old loves to build things and then take it apart and make something new. These are great toys because he can use his imagination and then can actually play with what he makes because they stay together. I love that all the sets are interchangeable, but color coded. The cargo loader is his favorite.

Wow we love these

My son has Aspergers and this toy fits right down his ally. Lego's are to frustration but he needed something more that just duplos and such. This allows him to use his imagination and still be able to makes something that stays together. He can make things by picture or just go with what he is thinking. Some of the pieces are a little tough but that just assures me that it will last for awhile until he is ready to do something else. I am just so happy that Fisher price came up with this product we have been looking for something for some time for a 4 year old and my 3 year old that meets them where they are at but still allows for them to grow. and the stages are great and I absolutely love they can all be combined and work together. We have 5 of the sets so far and will be getting the kings castle next.

Our trip family is increasing

We have lots of legos. But for some reason Trio is my 6yr old's favorite. We started with King's gatehouse. Now have Cargo Uploader. My sons loves it and keeps building on to it everyday.

easy to put together

My 4 year old son got this for his birthday and he already has 2 other sets and once you combine all the sets he can build more out of the trio then just what is in the booklet that you receive. I like the idea that fisher price came out with something for the 3-5 year olds that have out grown the duplex legos, and are not quite ready for the smaller legos. My son still enjoys playing with his blocks, he loves to build and create new things from them.

These trio sets are very nice.

We have added this to our son's basic bin Trio set. Very cool toy and decent size. for the current high pricing, I wish these sets were more versatile so that more can be done with them. After awhile a child wants to build something other than a cargo loader. Despite the multiple designs, it's still a cargo loader concept. I purchased a couple sets at a good sale price so the above complaint was less bothersome to me. I think the sets are nice additions to the more preferred basic bin set which has more options.
