About them: BRIO was founded in 1884 in Osby, a small town located in southern Sweden. Since then, we have successfully combined innovation with respect for our heritage of craftsmanship and products. Perhaps you have some fond childhood recollections of playing with our toys? Because that’s what our mission is based upon: to create happy childhood memories – ensuring that today’s children feel the same way about BRIO as generations before them.
My kids and I love BRIO toys so we were pretty excited to receive a couple for review and to include in our Holiday Gift Guide this year. The first was the Light & Sound Firetruck. It is for ages 18 months and up and my son who will be two in February absolutely adores trucks and cars so I knew he would love this! It came with the firetruck, , two little ladders and two little wooden people. The firetruck rolls around and the little hose is on a string and you can use the turn knob on top to roll it in and then pull it back out. It also has a button on top and once pushed, the lights light up and it makes the typical siren sounds for a firetruck. My son loves it and I could not be more happy with the quality of this toy and the durability of it! I know we will get many years of joy from it! My son loves taking the little wooden firefighters out and playing with them. There are two spots that they fit on the truck for added play. It is a great toy for the little ones! The next set was the Builder Activity Set. All three of my kids love this set! It is for ages 3 and up and comes with 211 pieces in all! It comes with all the tools and parts needed for your little one to use their skills and creativity to build countless vehicles, structures and more! It is a great set to help improve those fine motor skills and perfect for those creative kids! My oldest just turned 7 and loves building vehicles and such. She is so creative and this set has really helped inspire her! My other daughter just turned 5 and it is really helping her to fine tune her gross and fine motor skills and use her imagination and creativity. They both love this set and I highly recommend it for your littles! BRIO makes excellent quality toys that are both fun and entertaining and I highly recommend them for your Christmas needs this holiday season! They have so many great toys to choose from that will make your kids super happy this Christmas!
