Great for a horse or animal enthusiast
My 4-year old daughter got this 8 months ago and it is a winner. The two compartments, many doors, storage areas and folding fence give her all she needs to make her space for her many horses and other animals. It gets used every day and nothing has broken.

Worth the money
This play barn is exactly what I was looking for for my 4 year old son who is a Horse enthusiast. It is much bigger than I expected, beautiful, and has lots of opening doors and gates. It also comes with a fence that folds up and stores neatly in the barn. This barn is big enough for Breyer horses, and has an a swing out side. It was a great purchase and highly recommended.

Nice barn for toy horses
Just got this item today and I am impressed with it's compatibility for various sizes of toy horses. I especially love the fact that it can be folded up to a smaller size to be tucked into a closet when needed.

This barn has multiple doors that open-some slide and other's are dutch doors. We do have another barn of this type that has the dutch doors and the hinge's fell apart right away. I am hoping this one will be better since the doors do seem to open and close more smoothly on this particular barn...but need to stress that the kids need to be somewhat 'gentle' with these dutch doors so they don't break the hinges. The manufacturer really should attach them with metal hinges and they would last alot longer.

Overall...I feel my kids are going to get alot of enjoyment out of this barn. ... Read more

If your child is building a Loving Family Home collection, this "dining room" set will fill at least one of its rooms with classic, if miniature, décor. The set features four high-back chairs, a booster-seat for Baby, four place settings, birthday gifts with (molded) balloons, and a punch-filled pitcher with cups. The centerpiece of the dining room, as in most real homes, is its cleverly made dinner table. It displays a pizza on a checkered tablecloth on one side, accompanied by "Italiano" music. But flip the double-jointed table legs up, and turn the table over: now you have a floral tablecloth, birthday cake and birthday music! Its low tech, but lights, sounds, and versatility make the dinner table the highlight of the set. Required: 3, "AAA" batteries. Diane Beall ... Read more

She didn't want to let go!
We had came back from toysrus. Dropped off the stuff inside our home and relaxed for about 20 minutes. Within that time, I got this set out since I was interested in it also, lol, and she was just too into it! She threw a fit when we had to pull her away from it because we had to leave again...! Which was fine in a way since we knew SHE really made a good choice on which set to buy. And she's only 2 and some months.

My daughter loves this!
This is a very cute toy. My daughter received a giant dollhouse for her second birthday in December 2003 made by her grandpa, and then many Loving Family accessories to go in it. She loves all of it. Even after Christmas came and went (I realize it's only January but at two years old, toys often hold her interest for a very short time), the dollhouse and accessories are the hands-down favorite. I love all the Loving Family items. They are darling, and realistic down to the tiniest details. She loves the happy birthday song it plays, as well as the pizza party song. Her grandma has an older version at her house, which played three songs and seemed a bit simpler to use (no legs to fold down, just a button to push to change the table's theme music), but this one is still pretty neat. I worried my daughter would be a bit young for these items but she absolutely loves them! Nothing has broken so far but I gave it four stars because I am assuming it's somewhat delicate just because it is so small and has some small accessories.

Fun addition to dollhouse
My daughter just got this, along with the dollhouse and other accessories, for Christmas. She will be 3 in a week and a half. I think it's a wonderful addition to the house. She has lots of fun playing with it. She always wants it on the birthday party side, but I'm sure as she gets older she'll want to change it sometimes. The balloons sing Happy Birthday when you set them on an interactive spot in the house, and you can press the candle on the cake and the candle on the pizza side to get more music. I wish the booster attached better to a chair because it always falls off, but that's not a huge deal. This is a must have addition to your loving family dollhouse!

CUTE CUTE CUTE
My daughter received this for her 3rd birthday in addition to a dollhouse. She loves that it plays happy birthday. to me its strange to have three place settings and 4 chairs, but she likes it. the table is double sided and the legs are able to twist around to have either a pizza party or a birthday party. it took my daughter a couple trys to turn the legs evenly. all and all, she loves it and its cute. so yes its worth the money :) i wish they had more delux rooms you could purchase. ...

Editorial Review

"Formal Funk" is characterized by this all-inclusive, Prom-bound, stretch limousine. Chrome detailing, a gray interior, and cushioned, pivoting seats (with working belts) pronounce its luxury. For realism, the limo's head and taillights illuminate, the tinted windows lift, the horn blows, the wheels turn, and the gear and steering wheel move. That, however, is where "formal" ends and "funk" begins! The hood hides a real FM radio, and the trunk contains a "mega-bass" speaker, which spouts tunes clearly. A smoothie bar (the Bratz are never without one) rests between the backseats, and a lift-up dash houses a "primping station" The funkiest thing of all: the limo's roof comes off to make it a convertible! Other accessories include a "pop-up" TV screen, perfume, makeup tools, and more. Required: 5 "AA" batteries. Warning: choking hazard due to small parts. Not for kids under 3 years. Diane Beall ...

Total waste of money and disapointment for my child
My daughter received the Bratz Formal Funk FM Limo as well as the Disco Runway. They are very poorly made of plastic. Everything falls off. The doors fall off the limo and my daughter became very frustrated trying to play with it. It is now in the top of the closet. She also received the Disco Runway, which was worse than the limo. The dolls would not stay on the runway. It is made of such cheap plastic, you cannot even put the whole thing together without something else falling off. It is also in the top of her closet in pieces. I e-mailed the company and they told me to send the merchandise back in the original packaging. Christmas morning is hectic, so we did not have any of the packaging. They said there was nothing they could do. I will purchase the dolls for my daughter, but I will not buy any of the accessories to go along with them.

VERY DISAPPOINTED
My daughter received this limo for her birthday. I was extremely disappointed. It falls apart. It was made extremely poor. I believe it was purchased for over $80.00. It is not worth $1.00. Do yourself a favor, do not buy it.

Biggest waste of money
If the scales went to zero that is what I would have put. The dolls do not fit in the car without removing the sunroof, considering it constantly falls off, along with the doors, trunk lid, windshield and hood that is fairly simple to accomplish. The ONLY educational value is the kids learn patience and small hand coordination putting the car back together again. (...). It sits in the closet because my 9 year old grandaughter got sick of it falling apart all the time. So fun factor ZERO educational value 1/2 durability-negative 100
I hope this review is helpful and it can save you all a few dollars NOT buying this worthless, useless item.

Great, durable, toy
Hey, Toy Enthusiast, Why do u call every toy a lemon????????? What does that mean?? You are really wierd and anyone that calls a toy a lemon obviously has no clue.

Good Toy but not so durable
I got this toy for my birthday. Loved it. It is really fun to play with but there is one problem. If you push the doors out too much they fall off. But u can put them back on. This toy isnt very educational. ... Read more

Polly's practical, and so is her multi-tasking, 9-inch long VW bus. The bus is also cool, because it transforms into a trendy apartment or nightclub below deck, and café deck or smoothie lounge above deck, with just a few adjustments. The luggage rack, in addition, becomes an elevator, and the dance floor plays music and lights up. The bus also accommodates the gang's (Polly, with pals Shani and Drew) myriad interests and outfits; it holds a blinding assortment of tiny clothes, decorations, beauty products, electronics, and equipment, all with storage space. If pretend-play is what your kid is looking for, there's a lot to play with here--including a free, small handheld game for kids to get the set. Choking Hazard: Small parts. Not for children under 3 years. Diane Beall ... Read more

this thing is cool!
This is so kewl! i love the magnet walls and real lights! (...)! Like I said Fun Fun FUN!!! It was kinda tricky puttin it together, tho. I LOVE IT!!!

Hip Lil' Pad!
The Lil' Bratz Stylin' Space is a totally fun and imaginative alternative to a doll house! With all of the accessories (plus the two extra fashion accessory packs sold separately,) there are endless decorating and organizational posibilities! There's lots to do with the magnetic walls for you can arrange real lights, hooks and the book shelf, not to mention the "wall panels" flip to create mix and match looks! The bedroom style is also perfect for the 4 Lil' Slumber Pary Bratz to hang out in. While this toy earns 5 stars for super fun, it rates low on durability, as the walls aren't stable unless the ceiling is snapped in place (and accessibility to the dolls is more difficult) not to mention there is no way to change the light bulbs should they burn out. The furniture pieces, however, are sturdy and well made. Overall, this is a great lil' extra for the Bratz! ... Read more

Polly Pocket is slowly building an empire of accessories and alternative homes that may soon rival her more famous colleague Barbie. But unlike Her Pinkness, Polly doesn't seem intent on pursuing a wide variety of challenging careers, preferring instead to just hang out and enjoy all her cool stuff. In this sprawling set, Polly has a bike with which she can haul around a small popcorn cart, enhancing her popularity in the resort setting depicted in the rest of the set. Also included is a four-room hotel setting with bedroom, living room, bathroom, and patio. And capping it all off is a sort of combination Ferris wheel and roller coaster where little cars are spun to the top of a wheel before rolling down a curving ramp to the wheel's base. As with any Polly Pocket set, there are zillions of tiny accessories; this makes pretend play all the more fun but parents should make sure very young kids get nowhere near. --Charlie Williams ...

A Beautiful, Well Made Barn
My girls; 4,3,&1 years old; received this for Christmas. It's been a hit. Nothing has broken, even when being played with by 5 horse crazy girls. I purchased Schleich horses to go with it, and most (just not the biggest draft type horses) fit perfectly inside. The animals that came with it are fine, but a few of them are pretty scary with orange/red eyes. The animals I remember coming with it were horse, pig, cow, dog, and turkey. HTH

A Terrific Toy for Imaginative Fun!
I got this for my 2 year old twins. They love it. They put the animals in different compartments of the barn, open and close the doors, stalls, and the barn itself. It's a little pricey, but it really is a beautifully made toy. The animals are also very nicely detailed, very sturdy, and no small parts.

It's holding up wonderfully, with nary a scratch. We got this as a follow-up to a disappointing purchase with a plastic Noah's ark toy, whose doors were always falling off. (Okay, I'm probably spoiling my kids a bit...) At any rate, the ark is in park, but Noah's animals are welcome to come visit the barnyard.

Durable (and SAFE) Toy!!!!!
I am not sure what the previous reviewer is thinking! Of course there are no nails - This company clearly knows what they are doing! They only make safe products.... I also found the barn to very durable. My son is very rough with his toys and this barn has stood up to the test!

handle and doors broke after 1 day of rough play!
This is a great barn, lots of fun with lots of opportunity for imaginative play. That being said, I'm very disappointed in the way parts of it are put together, the handles are glued on with no screws or nails. My son is very tough on toys, but even if he wasn't, how long could you carry this around by the handles before they came off? The runners that hold the sliding doors on the front and back are also glued on. My son hit one at the wrong angle and it popped off. ... Read more

Polly Pocket is slowly building an empire of accessories and alternative homes that may soon rival her more famous colleague Barbie. But unlike Her Pinkness, Polly doesn’t seem intent on pursuing a wide variety of challenging careers, preferring instead to just hang out and enjoy all her cool stuff. The star attraction here is a four-room hotel setting with bedroom, living room, bathroom, and patio. Adding to the fun is a sort of combination Ferris wheel and roller coaster where little cars are spun to the top of a wheel before rolling down a curving ramp to the wheel’s base. Also included is Polly’s friend Shani, dressed in festive apparel, and equipped with a couple of more rides: a two passenger contraption that spins passengers around as they descend a pole while riding in cars and a double swing set. As with any Polly Pocket set, there are zillions of tiny accessories; this makes pretend play all the more fun but parents should make sure very young kids get nowhere near. --Charlie Williams ...

Celebration Salon
I ordered this set for my niece's birthday and she loves it. The set actually has a lot of cool features (various parts of the salon are operated by foot pedal, etc.) It has held up to 3 little girls playing with it so far and they all seem to like it. Very good buy.

What a great comeback!
My 8 year old daughter loves this! She has so much fun collecting and playing with all of the new ponies. I am so glad they brought these back!

Two Thumbs Up!
I have 3 girls ages 5, 3, and 1. They all love this my little pony set. They play with it every day. The set they got had three other ponies with it and this set doesn't but I guess everything else is the same. The only problem I had was my baby putting the tiny hairbows and shampoo bottles in her mouth so we just don't use them anymore. We just use the building and the poinies but my girls still love it and play with it all the time. ... Read more

no mobile that works
I purchased this bed for my granddaughter for Christmas and was dismayed when the 'musical' mobile did not work at all. I have been waiting for 3 months now for either amazon.com or toys 'r us to replace this with one which works. I feel like I've let my grandchild down as I promised I would get one which works for her. But so far, no luck. I see that another customer here has had the same experience, so beware of this possibly defective toy and the problems trying to get it resolved. Save yourself the frustration.

Beautiful bed - but mobile is a dud!
My 6 year old asked Santa Claus for this bed and Santa delivered via Amazon.com. When we received the bed before Christmas we assembled the bed only to find that the mobile was a dud. We are still waiting (30 days later) for a replacement. It is not worth the money - look for another bed that works.

Fun Toy
My daughter is 14 months old and loves to play with this toy.

The mobile part is very loud and could be more of a sleepy song but my daughter loves it. It is easy to put together. My daughter gets in there with Annabell, I wish they had a firmer mattress that hide's the slots but my daughter has so much fun with it. It is on the expensive side.The colours are nice. My daughter likes to pull it around also. She has a lot of fun. I wouldn't buy this again, I would look into one with a firm mattress so she could climb in and out of.

not worth it!
My daughter had to have this crib for Baby Annabell last Christmas. I was willing to spend the extra money because it was interactive. The mobile is the loudest, most obnoxious toy that my daughter owns. I thought that it would put Annabell to sleep (or maybe even keep her asleep!) but instead it just makes her laugh. My other problem with this crib is that it falls apart very easily. You have to put the posts in the approriate notches to assemble. My 4 year old doesn't leave the crib in one place. If she forgets to pick it up from the bottom, the whole thing falls apart, and she cannot put it back together. If the crib would stay together once it's first assembled, I would recommend it just because my daughter loves the blanket, pillow, and canopy that all have the signature Annabell markings- just take the batteries out of the mobile! But it is simply not durable enough for the money! ... Read more
