Playmobil Bride and Groom

Are you getting married? My playmobil bride and groom are. They are dressed in Victorian style wedding costumes.

He looks rather handsome in his dark blue suit with white cuffs and collar; there is a flower on his jacket lapel. Under his jacket the groom is wearing a pink waistcoat. around his neck on top of his white shirt the groom is wearing a bow tie. On his head is a blue top hat to match his suit this has a white band around ...
...cute I think . This playmobil groom measures 7.5 cm tall. The arms and legs of these people are movable and the bride and groom can hold hands (all together now ahhhhhhhhhh)

Now here comes the bride, ohh she is gorgeous. She is 7.5cm tall too. On her feet she has white shoes. She has a long white dress that looks in fact like a skirt and top. There is a red pattern and trim on the skirt of her dress, also a red design on the bodice ... more

Under his jacket the groom is wearing a pink waistcoat. around his neck on top of his white shirt the groom is wearing a bow tie. On his head is a blue top hat to match his suit this has a white band around it top hat. This groom has blond hair and his simple child like face had two eyes and a smile , Play Mobil faces are based on a child's drawing of a face round two big eyes and a smiling mouth no nose , they are quite appealing .He is rather cute I think . This playmobil groom measures 7.5 cm tall. The arms and legs of these people are movable and the bride and groom can hold hands (all together now ahhhhhhhhhh)

Now here comes the bride, ohh she is gorgeous. She is 7.5cm tall too. On her feet she has white shoes. She has a long white dress that looks in fact like a skirt and top. There is a red pattern and trim on the skirt of her dress, also a red design on the bodice and sleeves of her dress. The train of her wedding dress is white and has a red ribbon tied in a bow on this is detachable. Her veil is white and hangs just below her shoulder. There are several red flowers that can be fitted to the green leaves of her bouquet, this she holds in her hand. Her face is really pretty again like a child's drawing big eyes this time with eyelashes, two pink rosy cheeks; she is blushing and has a cute little smile.

I have actually seen this bride and groom on the top of a wedding cake at a wedding I went to a few years ago. I think they make good wedding cake toppers, super for the bride and groom as a keepsake or maybe give to their future children to play with.

I think many children will enjoy this bride and groom as an addition to any play sets they have.
This toy would be super to give to a child and play with especially if maybe their parent is getting married, or if they are going to be a bridesmaid. I think there are playmobil people that you can dress as a bridesmaid or pageboy. This way you can guide the child through the ceremony. You can also talk about what it might mean to have a new mummy or daddy. This set as with all the playmobil sets has plenty of play therapy opportunities.

Apart from the play therapy opportunities to work out problems or prepare for future events. This toy offers many other opportunities.
Since the bride and groom are dressed in a Victorian way you could use this as part as a Victorian topic. They could get married and then go to the playmobil Victorian mansion house.
You could also use them in an R E prop when talking about weddings. There are several other playmobil toys this set is compatible with; there is a horse drawn carriage they could go to church in.
As well as using as an educational prop these little figures are just fun to play with I have seen many children playing with them and having fun.
