LEGO QUATRO was a theme in preschool series introduced in 2004 and discontinued after 2006. It was designed for children age 1 to 3.
The sizes of LEGO, DUPLO, and QUATRO blocks. The small one on the left is the LEGO brick, the middle one is the DUPLO brick, and the large yellow one to the right is the QUATRO brick.
QUATRO bricks, hence the name, are designed to be twice the dimensions of LEGO DUPLO bricks. The name "QUATRO" also signifies that the blocks are quadruple the dimensions of the traditional LEGO System blocks. QUATRO bricks are compatible with DUPLO and System bricks. These pieces were baby-friendly, and were specially designed to endure teething. In addition, they are the largest-scale elements ever created.
The logo of QUATRO is an elephant which is the same as the old logo of Primo, but in a different colour. It was first released under LEGO Explore package, and then in LEGO QUATRO packaging.
