Little People Animal Rescue Playset
(Fisher-Price $39.99)
This miniature setting is part of a “village” of sorts that can be connected to other settings or enjoyed as a stand-alone. Of all the settings in the new line we find this one the most interesting. There’s a firehouse with a firetruck and a firefighter, who gets the kitty down from a tree. On top of the firehouse there’s a light and a rescue helicopter ready to be activated when kids crank the wheel on the side of the building. A button activates lights, songs and phrases. At the shelter there is an upstairs and downstairs with a door that opens and a place for puppy to get clean in a tub upstairs. The set comes with two figures and two animals and limited sound effects. Marked 1-5, we’d say that somewhere in the middle would be the sweet spot.
