What is the benefit of Duplos over Megablocks?

Lego is a much better/sturdier brand than Mega. For the really little ones, the huge Mega Bloks are good, but when they're in the preschooler age, Duplos seem to be a lot better.

Duplo seems to stay together better for me. My daughter (age 3) loves them as she can build with them! :)

My son just turned 2. He liked the Megablocks when he was 1 (mainly banging) but as of 6 months ago he graduated to Duplos and wants nothing to do with the Megablocks. For me it's just my son's preference. I do agree with all other posts that they are better quality and they stay together much better.

Actually I am fresh in buying this category toy, i choose this because of the big fame of Lego.

The "regular LEGO brick" plates will allow Duplo LEGO bricks to attach to the plate. However, the Duplo LEGO plates grip the Duplo LEGO bricks much better.

You can't hook them up together per se but they can lay side by side and Duplo blocks can hold them together.

Yes, Duplo blocks actually fit perfectly. However given their size, a single board may not offer much room to work with. Just some extra info, you can fit a regular 2x2 lego block on one of the duplo studs.

I am not sure if Duplo works with the regular Lego. The large plates are thin and I have had no luck connecting anything to the under side of this building plate. Contact Lego to be sure

Oddly this table works for both! My son uses the Duplos on it and doesn't have a problem. Some of the duplo lids that come with the box won't snap in but all the Lego blocks work nicely.

One of our kids turns 3 tomorrow, he likes legos more than duplos. As long as your kids are out of the "put every toy in my mouth" phase, you should be in the clear

I have connected two sets of mega blocks to eachother and other larger legos can work with them as well.

I honestly do not know. My kids never had mega blocks. Amazon has a great return policy though. That is why I only buy from them. Sorry I could not be more help.

From what I've researched, several people claimed that YES, it is compatible with the Mega blocks.

Not sure if theres a difference between that and regular mega blocks? But I just tried some of my sons mega blocks on it and they fit. The lego duplo are easier to get on and off, but the mega blocks fit, just a bit tight fit.

I would, off the top, say no. It has small pieces that can be hard to mainpulate for younger hands. DUPLO would be more appropriate for a younger child and later LEGO connect to DUPLO bits.

I am sorry but I do not know what size the Duplo Blocks are. If I remember right the Duplo Blocks are bigger, but that is not for sure.

the duplo blocks fit but not fit. They can go in but you have to really push it in so it is not good for the little hands. I gave it away so don't buy it for lego purposes. Hope this help

yes they are the smaller ones that they make. We have them for our granddaughter who is almost 5. I suggest mega blocks for the 1 and 2 year olds and duplo has an in between size for 3 year olds

How about a lego table and lego set? You can use regular legos or duplo blocks with the tables. They are interchangable, the duplos are twice the size of the regular ones.

The duplo blocks work with the table. I am not sure about the mega blocks because I have not used those.
