This is the perfect starter LEGO set: it includes a lap table with two side storage areas for the bricks, base plates to build upon, and 400 LEGO bricks. A handle makes the lap table easy to transport (as well as to store and enjoy). Best of all, the LEGO Play Table makes the toy very accessible. Experts say that kids who play with blocks develop the problem-solving and visual perception skills that lead to better math ability in the future.
