I just love all of the little bits and pieces that help put a smile on someone’s face but don’t cost the earth. Hero has been so lucky this month in that he’s been sent not one but two Brio World Playsets to have fun with! The whole set is really beautifully made; it’s mainly strong plastic and the wood is, as you’d expect, FSC certified. That there are even more airplanes that can be bought to complement the set – Hero has asked Father Christmas already [got to love a planner] for the “Blue one with Stairs”.

Manufactured to BRIO's high standards and from FSC Certified wood, this is ideal for developing hand-eye coordination and honing fine motor skills. This set has a terminal complete with control tower to spot all the activity, a beautiful red airplane which is really solidly made and which wheels along very smoothly preparing for take-off, plus a complete baggage handling system with two airport staff figures. The whole airport arrives as one piece so no tricky bits to put together, the only thing that needs putting into place is the control tower blue section at the top which easily pops into place.Disclaimer: We were sent the Yoto Player 3rd Generation to review free of charge, but words and pictures are mine.

So there’s plenty for them to think about and organise, which is great for developing those all-important thinking skills.

Perfume makes a special, thoughtful gift for a birthday or Christmas, but there are hundreds of different perfumes to pick from.Wood is one of our company’s strongest identifiers, and many of our wooden products have become icons in the world of toys.

The BRIO Airport with Control Tower was our first experience with Brio at all and I have to say we have been very impressed with the quality and durability of the pieces. It is now a world-renowned brand best known for its wooden railway system, which was first created in 1958 and now sold throughout the world. Including an aeroplane (with space for the pilot and a couple of passengers or a passenger and a piece of luggage), a monorail engine and monorail carriage, an airport complete with control tower and steps, airplane boarding stairs, 2 poseable figures, a suitcase along with 5 monorail support pillars, 7 pieces of curved track and 2 pieces of ramped track.By accepting all cookies, you agree to our use of cookies to deliver and maintain our services and site, improve the quality of Reddit, personalize Reddit content and advertising, and measure the effectiveness of advertising. That’s why we test our products thoroughly to our strict safety requirements which in many cases are tougher than the legal requirements. All track is compatible with standard wooden railway tracks, which means we can easily integrate it or use it independently. The girls are already planning on what they need to take on a plane and what might be in the airport to see. And we know that because Hero managed to leave some Brio outdoors last year in the rain for a couple of days and it got completely soaked.
