Big Fun with Little People!!

Disadvantages: so much choice you want them all!!!

...GARAGE The garage is a rather large play piece, spanning approximately 60cm x 30cm, brightly coloured red, blue and yellow. It has one steep ramp, a car lift, and a spiral ramp. There is also a car wash with little blue strips of fabric for the car to drive through, quite sweet really! The set includes one orange car and driver, one tow truck and driver. Although the ground floor of the garage is grey, it is illustrated with bits and pieces associated with the garage scene, ie/ nuts and bolts, spanners etc. The characters are also holding tool. The set comes with a sheet of stickers to place on to the pieces to brighten it up even more. To assist the child in recognising where the noises can be made, the individual items are orange. There five places which are orange. The top floor of the garage has a ringing telephone ("Bring...

Disadvantages: none

...I bought some little people toys for my daughter at xmas as my sister had bought for her daughter a few years back and i remember it kept her one amused so i thought this would be good for my daughter being almost 2 this was perfect for her. I bought her the zoo and the train set. The zoo is grea twith the animals and the noises they make she thought this was fun putting the animals in their places and hearing a noise when she did this you get the seal,lion,bird,elephant, monkey,polar bear,camel and the zoo keeper and car. When neach of these animals are placed in the zoo they make a noise which is rewarding and learning for you child to match the animal with noise.

Little People occupies your little ones!

Advantages: prices, large range, kids love 'em!
Disadvantages: packaging!

...with these toys. They have themes such as In the country ? you?ll find the farm, In the city ? you?ll find the garage and In the neighbourhood ? Sweet Sounds Home and the list carries on. Each theme has a main item to buy and these are the ones mentioned above. They usually cost between £20-£25 each. Then you can buy the add-ons, which are usually between £8 and £15 depending on the size. For example with the farm you can buy the baby farm or an extra tractor-trailer, or a market stall. You can also buy extra people ? this is good because with the large Garage we brought it only came with one car with a little person! I was a bit disappointed with that! Anyways the extra people come in tubes of 3 and there are 4 different varieties, each dedicated to one theme! How clever is that!!! Now each main item in a theme will have lights and...

Little people have big Fun on the farm

Advantages: lots of things to do, really educational and fun
Disadvantages: makes noises and needs batteries

...The world of little people by fisher price has so many options to choose from or indeed to collect over time. I chose to buy the ?world of little people? farm, as my little girl loves animals and from an early age was obsessed with trying to mimic their noises. With the help of this toy, she now recognises and mimics all the farm animals perfectly (and even confused her Nan into thinking there was a cat in the garden during one of her impersonations). Initially I was angry at fisher price for changing their toy people from my memories of them as a child. I sulked for a while, but then realised that their new style people are much safer and more child friendly. Everything in the world of little people range is made of strong and robust plastic, all of which has a lovely soft and quality finish. When my daughter was a baby i said that...

Here comes the little tike in a police car.

Advantages: super for childs play
Disadvantages: no

...NEE NAA NEE NHAAA NEE NAAA. Watch out here come the police in the little tikes patrol police car, its been driven by a 4 year old the police man could be between the age of 1 and 5 as it will be big enough inside for them. There is only room for one patrol officer in this car and no space for prisoners behind him. This police patrol car is a version of the cosy coupe you often see children driving around in these cars from little tikes are very popular in childcare settings This car is ideal for the playground or inside in a large space. I did see one at toddler's world at the leisure centre in Dunstable. As you might imaginer this car is made out of plastic coloured blue with the word police on the doors (there are 2). There is a roof over the top of the car it is not an open vehicle. (Ideal little Johnny then can...

Review of Little Tikes Patrol Police Car

Little People Noahs Ark

Advantages: Chunky pieces, opens up completely so easy to play with
Disadvantages: None that I have come across

...This was one of the first of the many little people playsets that I have got for the children and they love it. The Ark does need minimal assembly when first opened. You will need to secure the cabin onto the deck of the Ark with two screws (supplied..but phillips screwdriver required). Snap a little door on to the cabin. You now have your Ark in two whole pieces, the hollow base and the deck roof, that snap together to make the completed Ark. Now you are ready to go. The roof comes off easily by pressing a large red button at one end..very easy for children to do. The hollow Ark base itself opens right up, again with a very easy to do release button, which allows childrens to play right inside. There is also a ramp door for the animals to go into the Ark 2 by 2! The set comes with rainbow flag that sits on top of the Ark...

a fabulous little car

Advantages: good value for money, sturdy, attractive, safe, easy to clean, lasts for years
Disadvantages: can be difficult to store

... Little Tikes Cosy Coupe Having helped in nurseries from about 12 years old I have always seen the enjoyment children get out of this toy (as well as the fights for whos turn it is!). I also remember these being around when I was little in childrens indoor play areas. The Little Tikes Cosy Coupe that we own, initially came from my mums nursery which she had to close when she fell pregnant with my brother in 1999. Various toys and equipment got sold and donated but a few things were kept for my baby brother and this car was one of them. What is it? The Little Tikes Cosy Coupe is a 3 ½ ft tall brightly coloured plastic car which one child can sit in and use their feet to push forwards and backwards. The car has a red body with a yellow roof and has one working door on the lefthand side which enables the child...

Review of Little Tikes Cosy Coupe

Fisher Price Little People Garage

Advantages: Good sound effects
Disadvantages: Size

...A major piece of equiptment once again a little people toy that takes up more space than the average family home can handle. The garage itself has some nice sounds like a ringing phone and engine noises before you wizz down one of the two ramps and a car wash and car mecanics ramp with sound effects. Brightly coloured and compatible witht he other little people systems It also has a car lift which cranks up and down but I have had to put it back on several times as it comes off quite easily. My son has had this unit for 2 years and the batteries have not been changed yet and he plays with it daily so its economical on power but the downside really is the space it takes up....

Review of Fisher-Price World Of Little People Touch and Feel Garage

Little People toys have given hours of fun!!

Advantages: Easy for little hands to hold, encourage imaginative play
Disadvantages: can be expensive to buy lots of sets

.... Two toucans and a flag can be positionsed on the roof, which has a shelter with an opening door. The actual boat part of the ark has windows and an opening ramp to let the animals in and out. Finally, recently my daughter was given the aeroplane by a friend having a clear out. I don't know if there is a more up to date version, but this one comes with a 'fuel car' with a hose to put fuel into the aeroplane, the piolet, flight attendant and passengers. There is an opening door, and the propellors spin round. In all, these three items have kept my daughter happily entertained for over a year. She will often choose to play with them by herself, or with input from mum or dad. The great thing about Little People is that you can build up a collection where the people and animals can be interchanged to provide further interesting play...
