KidKraft 2 in 1 Activity Table-Lego Compatible

We purchased ours at Sears on sale. The best current deal I've seen for this table is at Amazon.com.

Activity tables like train tables and lego tables are a lot of fun for young kids and have a lot of learning benefits. It perks the imagination of young brains, helps them use their small motor skills and helps them focus their attention to the activity for longer periods of time.

If you think of purchasing an activity table and just don't have the room for a huge train table or specialized table for each, I recommend KidKraft 2 in 1 Activity Table-Lego Compatible.

We received our couple of months ago and it provided constant entertainment for our little son. It also keeps us off the ground when we're playing with him. This particular table fits the bill for us. The fact that it came with a small train set and legos was a surprise. On the down side, the table is quite small and were aware that he wouldn't use it beyond toddler years. I've seen some negative reviews on the construction of the table before we ordered it, but it hadn't been an issue for us. I think this is the table to have if you want to invest only a small space in your house for this purpose. I certainly wasn't going to replace my coffee table with a train table!

We ended up adding a wooden city set and an extra train set to the train table so that we had more variety. Same with the lego side. We added a small set of legos and some cars. It works great this way.

The most interesting part of how we use it of course came from my son.  He sets the train set on the lego building side and constructs buildings and parking structures for his cars on around the train set. In this way, he can pay with everything at once. I would have never thought of this!  Creativity of thinking little minds at work always impresses me.
