While playing DUPLO with my 7yo I thought it would be fun to try out some new terrain techniques using pieces I had lying around!
DUPLO SNOT Terrain Techniques
These SNOT (Studs Not On Top) and base techniques can be used to make an array of different fun MOC landscapes:
A knight’s first glimpse of the ocean
Vegetation can also be used on its side!
Sideways DUPLO even make a good base for normal system LEGOs
My kids can be pretty rough with DUPLO, often using them to build Minecraft pickaxes and bang them on DUPLO rocks
You can use a hacksaw to turn partially broken DUPLO into smaller 1×2 plates and bricks
Smaller system LEGO can be put on top of DUPLO to make massive scenes!
Because LEGO fit on top of DUPLO bricks, they are perfect for building large bases
You can put 2×2 and 2×4 LEGO bricks on top of the DUPLO studs
You can place 2×2 and 2×4 LEGO bricks on the DUPLO studs
The resulting base is quite sturdy (though heavy!)
