Welcome to the world of little people

Advantages: see review
Disadvantages: see review

...For over 40 years, little people toy's have been specially designed to engage children on different levels, encouraging them to make new discoveries. My 1 year old was brought little people fun sound's train for christmas and it is brilliant. ~~~~WILL IT HELP MY CHILD TO LEARN?~~~~~ Little peoples toy's are designed to help your child learn from the ages of 12 months to 5 years, at the youngest age, your little one will begin by exploring little people toys, which help discover how his actions can make things happen. As your children grow, they will begin to act out stories about themselfs, using toys to imitate the real world experiences they have seen or tried them out themself's. With older children, imagination comes into play as they move from imitative play into creating a pretend world where anything can happen, this kind...

Review of Fisher-Price Little People Range

Big Fun with Little People!!

Advantages: great range, reasonably priced
Disadvantages: so much choice you want them all!!!

...I decided to review the Fisher Price Little People range as one rather than all the individual items. You may have seen the review for the Lights and Sound Garage, which is part of this range. I actually bought my son a few of the Fisher Price range for Christmas and am pleased I did. The range includes Gararge, Farm, House, Zoo and Safari and Construction Site. They are available from all the major toy shops such as ToyrUs but Woolworths seem to the be the biggest stockists, that I have seen in the North Yorkshire area. The actual products that I have purchased are the Lights and Sound Garage and Farmyard. We also have the Construction Site add on set, rather than the full playset. Fisher Price have always been renowned for their childrens toys and although their designs have changed drastically over the years, they are...

Review of Fisher-Price Little People Range

learning little people

Advantages: Excellent for learning
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. With the monkey you hit a lever and this makes the monkey jump to get to his bananas this makes a noise when you do this she loves this and forever does it...

Review of Fisher-Price Little People Range

Little People occupies your little ones!

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

...Little People is a new updated range of plastic toys for children aimed at children from 1 to 5 years old. There is a large range of toys that intermingle. Toys, which we currently have in our household, include Noah's Ark, the fairground range and the Garage. All get played with everyday, which is some mean feat when my son, aged 23 months has so many different toys to play with. Little People are of course made by Fisher Price and are available in ?All good toy stores!? I personally have found the best range to be at Toys R Us and Woolworths. The toys are tough and durable just as you would expect from a company with a reputation such as they have. With all the items I have brought from this range I have had no problem them, all the sets have come complete no missing pieces or any damaged. The assembling was minimal and some...

Review of Fisher-Price Little People Range

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...

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...

Review of Fisher-Price World of Little People Noah

Big Fish, Little Fish...

Advantages: The cast are engaging and it has more engaging Burton moments than "Planet of the Apes"
Disadvantages: Not Burton at its best - is it Alabama? Why did Burton cast Crudup?

...Burton at its best, it is an imaginative film filled with generally good performances. It is vibrant and it is an adventure. But it can't escape being a film that does little more than allude to his better work: such as in the moment where the young Ed watches over men mowing the identical lawns of suburbia, that is so reminiscent of 'Edward Scissorhands' - but maybe that just means there is hope for his next film? Until you leave the cinema your likely criticisms will be about the structure of the film and the slight anti-climax at the end. But once you start to think about the nature of the apparent real world of 'Big Fish' the pond will have become bigger and your rating of it may well appear a little smaller in comparison....

Review of Big Fish (DVD)

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

...My nearly-two year old daughter had her first experience of Fisher Prices' Little People range when she was nine months old, in the form of the Train. This came with three animals (tiger, parrot and giraffe) plus the driver dressed as a game/zoo keeper. It plays a tune when you push the driver down in her seat. One of the sides flips down, the tiger and parrot are on a see-saw, and the giraffe spins round when pushed. She had great fun with this, and still returns to it now at almost two to play at letting the animals on and off. She had Noah's Ark bought for her first birthday, and again it has provided her with hours of enjoyment over the year. The Ark comes with a removable roof, and contains several sets of animals (it now comes with three extra pairs of animals then we got!), Noah, his wife, and two crates of provisions...

Review of Fisher-Price Little People Range

A little house for little people to play in

Advantages: good for imaginative play
Disadvantages: ?

...A little house to play in. When we visited Mead open farm Adrian played in their play area one of the toys he liked was a playhouse. It was the country cottage made by little tikes costs £159 including delivery from the little tikes web site. This playhouse would be suitable for children between the age of 2 to maybe 6 or 7 it is not a very tall not a large playhouse so I think older children would be too big for it. The measurements are 131cm/ 4 ft 4 inches tall, width 104 cm 3 ft 5 in, length127cm /4 .2 in. This house is made of strong moulded plastic it has a door, which opens and closes and 4 windows with shutters on. It seems well made and strong. There was a sink and a cooker having taps and knobs to twiddle, inside the house that Adrian played in. I must admit at 18 months old he was not playing house but enjoyed...

Review of Little Tikes Country Cottage

Whole Little World.

Advantages: Great fun for kids.
Disadvantages: Bits Can Get Lost. Batteries.

...This is just one of the sets that my kids have in the Fisher Price Little People range. As I have said before in other reviews that I have done on the Fisher Price range these are great and my kids love them. Though the only downfall with being the one set you will go back and buy more. Believe me most kids love them and the fun never stops. ~~ What is the world of the little people ? ~~ Well for anyone that does not have kids or just have not seen these sets, then where have you been for the past 2 years !!! Made by Fisher Price they are all individual play sets. Each set has something different about it weather it be the noises the sounds or the music. Each set you will get 2 or 3 little people figures that can be mixed and match with the different sets that are all available through most good toy shop and Argos...
