Advantages: a delightful cottage to house your sylvanian figures Disadvantages: none
It was my younger daughter's fourth birthday on Saturday and from her grandparents she received this delightful Rose Cottage which is part of the SylvanianFamilies range. They had already bought her a little family for Christmas but they didn't have anywhere to live - hence this cottage.

Susan Harper (Zoe Wanamaker): the mum, who is a tour guide and (she thinks) a gourmet cook. Wants to be involved in her children's lives, but is constantly reminded by their actions that she is unable to reason with them on their level.
