 My 7 year old daughter has loved these since toddlerhoodApr 21, 2004
By Catherine Martin
My daughter has played with the 80's version of the Calico Critters at Grandma's from age 3 on up, and was delighted when she received this mouse family for her birthday. She loves imaginative play and has made a beautiful homemade shoebox house for her little mice, including furniture made from household odds and ends. She is getting her brother another Critter family for his 5th birthday so their families can be neighbors. These are wonderful toys, very cute and well-made. Their arms and legs move, and their little outfits are adorable. The only difficulty we've had so far is in tying the tiny outfit ties when they come undone (such as the baby twins' miniscule outfits that are tied with tiny bows). They are quite durable, just as the 80's versions were (and are). I highly recommend them for any child who has a good imagination and who loves pretend play with families.

The BEST Toys Ever!!!Sep 14, 2004
My grandma and parents bought me this set along with the Whiskers Cat Family and a few of the Calico Critter twins sets. These completely posable, fuzzy, dressable, and lovable creatures are the best toys you can find anywhere! I am almost 12 years old and I spend hours playing with these little guys in my dollhouse. My parents even enjoy them too! If I could reccommend the best toy for kids, Calico Critters would definitely have to be my choice!

 Calico CrittersJan 02, 2010
By Carol A. Hanson
These are VERY cute, but WAY smaller than I thought they'd be. It said they were 6"+, but it turns out that was the size of the box - the critters are only about 2". They don't stand up very well. So, to me, they are more just a cute little 'trinket' than they are something to play house with. I didn't feel like I got much for over $22, but I suppose there is more there than it seems, when you take into account the clothes etc.

 A very good toy for a careful childDec 23, 2009
By I. Khrebtova
My daughter loves Calico critters animals, and she plays with them very carefully. To that end, the Norwood family is a great neighbor to all the other families we've got. But I did have to fix many things once her friends came over and played with those: kids who are a little less careful find it difficult playing with those without tearing little parts off. I would say it is a great toy for kids who are around 5 and have good small motor skills, but not for younger kids (although I must admit my younger one is 4 and has been playing with those since she was 2.5)
