Summer is right around the corner. Which means we are counting down the days to fun in the sun as a family. It also means spending some down time inside when needed. Thanks to Playmobil the girls have some new, fun sets that are perfect for summertime to play with. The girls have been playing with the Family Car, Family Beach Day, Ice Cream Cart, and Park Playground.
BUILDING THE PLAYMOBIL FAMILY FUN SETS
I love how excited the girls got when they saw the Playmobil box. They knew something fun was inside. I knew there were things I would need to set up before they could let their imaginations play. Depending on how intricate the Playmobil set is will indicate how long it will take to build the sets. For the four sets pictured above it took me around 45 minutes.
I’m sure there are playset building masters out there that could do much better. I simply made sure my kids knew that it would take me a little bit of time to prepare them. The girls were also able and willing to help in any way they could with the building of the Playmobil sets. Having them be a part of that was half the fun because they were able to see what needed to go where and be proud of what they made.
BRINGING SUMMER FUN INSIDE
Here in the Lower Mainland, we can get all sorts of weather in the summer. The past few summers have also had days filled with poor air quality due to forest fires. Sometimes we have to bring the summer fun inside. With playsets like this, I know the girls will be entertained for a long time. Every time the girls play together it’s amazing to see and hear what they are creating during their playtime.
These sets really depict a child’s fun in the sun. Have you ever gone on a road trip with your family? My girls have loaded up the Family Car with parents, the kids and all the things they need to travel and go camping or to the beach. The Beach Day set has so many little details! There is everything a parent would pack to take for a day at the beach. Sunscreen, shade tent, snacks, it’s all included.
Anyone else have childhood memories of being at the playground and hearing the ice cream truck roll up? While it may not be a truck, the Ice Cream Cart is perfect. There’s a variety of ice cream included and my kids love that it is a little bike cart. My girls have already been pushing the little cart around calling out that ice cream is for sale while all the other characters are at the Park Playground. I was surprised by how much was included in the playground set. There’s a play structure with a slide, seesaw, swing and more.
IT’S ALL IN THE LITTLE DETAILS
Playmobil pays attention to all o the little details in their playsets. It’s a key factor in why we’ve come to really love all the playsets we have for the girls. There are lots of things for them to discover and put to use while they play. Every time that my kids play with these sets they are coming up with different storylines and adventures. The possibilities for playtime are endless, it’s all up to the kids playing.
Disclosure: Thank you to Playmobil for sending these sets to us to review. All opinions shared are our own.
These sets are so cute, and perfect for Summer! Might be a nice little addition to add into our girls SCHOOL’S OUT FOR THE SUMMER baskets 😉
That beach set looks like a lot of fun. Perfect for those days when Mother Nature isn’t fully cooperating. Or you can even take the beach set… to the beach!
We love the summer sets!!
