Sunshine Ranch

This was my 5 year old daughter's first "real" Lego set. We've had duplos in the past...but this was her first set of big girl legos. She LOVES it. We worked together on putting it all together. She was able to follow the directions (sometimes had questions, but for the most part could follow along on her own). As a parent, I found the directions very easy to follow along and it was nice how they separated legos into different bags for the different parts of the play set you were building. That was much better than having one big pile of legos. Like a lot of lego sets we've seen recently...there are many extra pieces (which sometimes gets a bit alarming because you aren't sure if you missed a piece in a step somewhere!).Overall, I would (and my daughter would) recommend this set. Many areas of play...many characters (two girls and three horses) to play with. more less

This set is full of playability. You can ride and groom the horses, check the chicken coop, pet bunnies and a cat, use the wheelbarrow, play in the bedroom, use the bathroom, cook on the stove, read a book under the tree, a whatever else you can think of. There is non stop action at the Sunshine Ranch. Kids will love this set. There is just so much to do. more less

Like all Friends sets, especially the large ones, Sunshine Ranch packs in loads of detail and engaging play scenarios - horse-related, farm-related and luxury-barn-conversion-related. It's yet another excellent build from the Friends range that once again combats the misconception that construction has been dumbed-down for girls. more less
