Who the LEGO DUPLO Classic Deluxe Brick Box Set is for

Buy it if: Children from 18 months, in a household that may add standard LEGO later.

Avoid it if: Nothing meaningful -- though a dishwasher will warp the bricks.

Who the Stride Rite Light-Up Athletic Sneakers for Kids is for

Buy it if: Parents who will measure feet every few months rather than buying by size memory.

Avoid it if: Anyone wanting washable shoes -- submerging these destroys the LED circuit.
