LEGO® City 60373 Fire Rescue Boat and Dinghy brings thrilling rescue missions right to the water's surface, expanding the beloved LEGO® City world with an action-packed firefighting theme. Children can imagine responding to incidents at the harbour, on a river or at a lake, where quick reactions, team coordination and getting the situation under control before the "fire" spreads are all part of the fun. The set is ideal for young builders who love emergency vehicles and want to take their stories from the street onto the water. Building supports imagination, perseverance and fine motor skills, while giving the finished model a clear purpose: the boat and dinghy aren't just for display – they actively invite role play. If you're looking for a set that combines firefighters, water and dynamic scenarios, this set is a perfect match.

Use

The set is great for everyday play as well as inspiration for long-term LEGO® City adventures. Children can practise rescue operations: patrolling the water, approaching the scene of an incident, deploying the smaller dinghy for quick manoeuvres and safely "extinguishing" an imaginary fire. It also works brilliantly for two players or for playing with parents – one plans the operation while the other prepares the equipment and "calls in" the units. If you already have other LEGO® City sets at home (police, harbour, coast guard or residential buildings), you can easily create an entire city with a water district and elaborate storylines. A practical bonus is that children can leave the boat on display after playing and come back to it at any time to invent a new scenario. The most fun comes when you incorporate the set into your own LEGO® City world and develop the stories of "operations" from mission to mission.

Packaging

The packaging also works well as a gift – the firefighting theme is universally popular and clearly communicates that this is an action-oriented rescue set. After opening, I recommend tipping the pieces into boxes or bowls and sorting them by size or colour so that building goes smoothly and children don't waste time searching for parts. It's worth keeping the box for storing the instructions and smaller pieces later, or for safely transporting the set. If you're buying the set for travel or weekends at the grandparents', it's practical to prepare a small bag in advance with the most frequently used pieces and the instructions. You'll appreciate the packaging most when you want to give the set as a gift without any fuss and still have a tidy way to store everything.

Contents

LEGO® City 60373 is designed to combine striking vehicles with role-play accessories so that a child can easily imagine an entire rescue operation. The star of the show is the fire rescue boat, complemented by a smaller dinghy for swift action in tight spots. This pairing of vessels is excellent for thoughtful play: the boat can serve as a "base" while the dinghy acts as a rapid-deployment craft. In this way, children learn to plan their approach, divide up tasks and engage their imagination. The set also fits naturally into the LEGO® City world – water rescue sits comfortably alongside classic fire engines and stations, adding a whole new dimension to play. The set's composition makes perfect sense for children who want more than a single vehicle and will appreciate the combination of a large boat and a smaller dinghy for action-packed scenarios.

Additional info

This set is an excellent choice for children who admire the work of firefighters and enjoy models of rescue vehicles. It encourages concentration, logical thinking and the ability to see things through to the end, as building step by step leads to a striking result that children can be genuinely proud of. Another advantage is the high replay value – once you've built the boat and dinghy, you can keep inventing new events: a call-out at the jetty, a rescue in a storm, assisting a fishing boat or a practice drill. If you're looking for a gift that won't be gathering dust after a week, a water-based fire rescue mission is a safe bet for long-lasting fun. LEGO® City 60373 is the ideal gift for young rescue fans who want the action not just on the road, but on the water too.
