LEGO® Friends Farm Animal Sanctuary Toy 42617 (6+ Yrs)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids have always loved legos and this set is adorable! They put it together on their own (very quickly) and have been playing with it non stop! I’m so glad they love it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We are major Lego fans in my household. Doesn’t matter what design; we just love to spend time as a family putting Legos together with our five-year-old son. Afterwards, we love to play with the characters and whatnot. This set was awesome! We do not have anything with farm animals, so it was fun to build this set and add on other sets with it to make an even bigger farm. So much fun!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the cutest Lego set. Build your barn, grow vegetables, make strawberry jam and care for your animals. The set comes with 3 lego characters and a goat, a cow, a chicken and 2 chicks. The set also includes a buildable toy farm, tractor toy and windmill with a fun feature where the empty jars go into the machine and come out as jam-filled jars. Other accessories include toy food elements including carrots and strawberries, plus jars, a pitchfork, a brush, a shovel, eggs, haystacks and a lantern. A fantastic set to spark imaginative play for little ones aged six and over.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product was great fun for me and my son to build, the easy instructions made it clear and was so easy for my 4 year old to understand, it didn't take too long either

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Lego Friends Farm Animal Sanctuary is amazing! So easy to build and has so many little items to go with it. Both my children have loved playing with this, I have an 11 year old girl and a 7 year old boy who both have loved it! They think it’s so cool it has a Jam maker, little chicks, eggs! The quality of this toy is amazing!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A fantastic set that contains everything you need to not only build a farm, but many extras for you to use this as a small world toy too. The quality is amazing and the instructions very clear. We took our time to put it together and were very pleased with the end result. The set includes 3 figures, a tractor, windmill and a range of other little accessories to play with, so this is not just a build and leave toy, it's lovely to role play with too. Would highly reccomend this set for any farm living child.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Lego is one of my sons favorite toys! They always send instructions to put each piece together which is wonderful! It makes for great time together or even easy enough for him to do alone

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids love Legos and this was a perfect one for them. High quality materials, easy to assemble and great for young minds. Love legos and their versatility for all ages!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Me and my children had a really fun time bonding and having fun together building the lego playset the little farm is very cute the details are very thought through and do add to the design well. The building isn't the fun over once done we have been having a great time doing role play and will have many hours more it's an adorable kids lego set and isn't hard to build with the straight forward instructions and the images do help the younger ones so much more to.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The world of Lego is vast and varied - from Superhero sets and toys that seem to encourage rather boisterous or even violent play, to sets like this, which as the "Lego Friends" branding suggests, are more about cooperation and social harmony. In this set, three (varied gender, varied ethnicity) friends are running a sanctuary that also, it seems, grows vegetables. What could be more peaceful? Playing with the set has sparked conversations already about why animals end up needing shelter and the differences between wild, farm, and pet animals. The set itself is very comprehensive with nearly a thousand (mostly quite small) pieces. There are several sessions' worth of play just in putting the main elements together, before you start to act out scenarios and stories with the little dolls. The sense of scale is not quite accurate in the real world but this leads to interesting conversations about why the carrots are too big or how old the littlest of the dolls is in relation to the taller ones - all useful for developing thinking about how the world works and why it is ok that sometimes simulation or art doesn't follow the literal reality. The smaller pieces in this set are great for little fingers and, as you would expect with Lego, everything fits together and works as intended. Wheels on the tractor are a little stiff to start but I think they are easing up with use. Given that this set very much makes a specific thing, you will want to keep these pieces bagged up separately from a general Lego collection. One criticism of these types of set is that they really only make one thing - you can't really change the shape of the main building, for example, and the dolls are who they are (though apparently some of the features such as wigs may be interchangeable with other Friends figures). That is certainly true of this set, but I think there is enough richness and variety to say that it does inspire creative and imaginative play. The price is quite high, which I recognise is on par for Lego now but given that this is an ideal gift for a younger child - 6 to 9 years old in my view -- it is a lot of money for one toy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Well is alot bigger than I expected!! We spent time together putting it all together my son has adhd so things like this really helps calm and help him wind down and focus, the quality is amazing and entertaining trying to put together, once we got it together he hasn't stopped playing with it it's great for kids wild imaginations and for me hours of calm children I will be looking to extend my sons lego thank u so much

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was kindly sent this from Influenster to try and review and we are so pleased with it, thank you! My son (6) was easily able to make this set within an hour, the instructions are straightforward. The build is split over 4 bags with 3 booklets (bags 3+4 make the ranch.) The set has fantastic details even down to the strawberries on the bottle lids and the roof opening up to give access to the ranch, the animal pens are so cute and we love the drink stand. The ranch is compatible with mini figures as well as Lego friends so my son can play with it with all of his Lego. We would highly recommend this for boys and girls who enjoy Lego.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Part of the Lego friends range this farm set is fantastic. Lots of attention to detail with mini veg and animals, my cousin absolutely loves it and she plays with it constantly. As with all Lego products it is very high quality and this set is suitable for 6 years and over
