Doesn't fit well with other brandsErinIf you plan on sticking with only IKEA tracks, these are fantastic. If you have other brands or might purchase other brands, you may wish to look elsewhere. We got these tracks and a few other items to extend our son's train set. The male connectors on the IKEA pieces are just a hair too short to fit well with the other track brands. We have a couple of Brio pieces and a set from an off-brand (Tiny Land). I am sanding the round portion of the male connectors to increase the length before the round part starts. I wish I'd found a different set of more tracks instead of purchasing this one.3
Love these train set ErsiliaMy kids plays for ours with the train set, even me and my husband enjoy playing with them. The quality is great 5
Lillabo trian setSandraIt's the perfect starter set for little ones to play train on. Of course you'll need to buy the trains. The trains of all sorts are also readily available at IKEA at a very reasonable price. I bought those too. 5

Not compatible with brioTenleyThese are nice tracks and work well with other IKEA tracks but they're not quite compatible with brio and other brand wooden train tracks. They fit but it's tight and not good for young kids.3

Train SetTrudiI bough a train set 18 years ago from IKEA for my nephew. I still have it and my kids wanted more track and this is compatible with the original IKEA track, Nice smooth finish and even the Thomas trains work on it.5
Race track Set (50 pieces)NinaThe set is awesome. I actually bought it for my classroom. My students love that you can continue to add and connect pieces. They start on opposite sides of the classroom and connect the track, the pull the cars down it.5

A train running on imagination

The wooden train in the LILLABO series now has a more modern design and new parts to continue inspiring creative play and limitless imagination. It’s playtime where all ages can play together and create new worlds while they fine-tune their motor skills and learn to solve problems. Simply put, playtime at its finest.

With fully-loaded cars, the train pulls into the small town and brakes at the station to release some cars before rolling on towards new adventures ... Generations of children have played the same way: transformed the floor into a landscape where railroad tracks wind their way around a fantasy world where anything is possible. The fact that wooden toy trains have survived so long is because it encourages playing in different ways. Bodil Fritjofsson, who has developed and updated the LILLABO toy series, including a new train set, stands behind this. ”It involves both creative play where the child constructs their own train tracks and the surrounding landscape, and classic role playing where they imagine the train in their own world”, says Bodil, who believes that many parents like the fact that a classic train track like LILLABO is made in solid and sustainable wood.

Understanding the needs of children

How can Bodil know that wooden trains and other toys are still relevant for today's children? Some of this knowledge comes from Children's School, a department at IKEA which acts as a knowledge bank and teacher for everything concerning children. Jessica Bondesson works here and explains what Children's School does. ”We want to help our employees to really understand a child's development and needs so that IKEA offers good and safe children's products”. Jessica is convinced that the train track and other parts in the robust LILLABO series have a place in our technically advanced time. Toys stimulate the imagination, develop a child's logical thinking, and encourage socializing – something which children really appreciate. ”In 2015 we carried out a large survey about playing, Play Report, which shows that children have similar needs around the world and that they like playing with their parents”. Parents tend to agree, the survey shows that most parents think everyone should play more and work less.

New trains for a new time

LILLABO has been in our range since the 1990s, but with the new parts the series jumps into the modern era where high-speed trains have replaced steam locomotives and where cars carry loads in colorful containers. It's a train set which every child can recognize from their own surroundings – even if it's in wood. How much candy can fit in a container and how heavy a load can the locomotive pull up the viaduct? By adding new parts to the series, Bodil and her colleagues hope they help to increase play and creativity. ”And with a battery and lighting on the train, I also think that older children will play with LILLABO. You're never too old to build fantasy worlds”.

Material

What is solid wood?

Solid wood is one of our favorite materials and is part of our Scandinavian heritage. It is also a timeless material with many uses. Regardless of the tree species, it is durable, beautiful and renewable. We strive to use this raw material as smartly and efficiently as possible to avoid waste – and we also invest in facilities and logistics so that we can increase the use of recycled wood.
