My husband and I purchased this set for our just-turned-five year old daughter for Christmas 2011... It is late March 2012 as I write this review and I can truthfully comment that not a day has gone by that she hasn't played with the animals, rearranged/rebuilt the farm, the house, the fences...and LEARNED about the different animals ~ what animals eat what food and why...which ones sleep standing up...which ones lay eggs and which have live babies...what baby animals are called in relation to their mommas and daddies... I mention all of this because I gave five stars for the educational value of this toy... This is not her first Lego set, but one we knew she'd love because of the new and different animals ~ her other sets have zoo animals and she has learned so much with those, too... My daughter is still so very much excited about this Lego set, so my husband and I are very excited, as well! We've introduced the smaller Legos to her ~ seasonally ~ and she loves those, too...but she's five...she wants to play...not worry that animal pieces will go flying if she drops something... It's a wonderful, durable, imagination-boosting toy that I know will keep her interest for some time yet... Go, Lego!!

This is awesome, there are enough prices to build all sorts of things. Farms, out buildings, or whatever your imagination comes up with. Only problem is it didn't come with directions to build the farm like it is on the box. This is a source of frustration for me, but my kids don't care! They love it!

If you purchase this set, i would reccomend you take the time to put it together prior to your child seeing the set. There are no instructions included. Just a small picture on the front of the box (which you cannot see everything). I had to sit down, and with trial and error, figure out. With instructions, I could have sat down with my 3 yr old and helped her along the way to putting pieces together.
Pieces are bagged in multiple packages. You would think that they would be bagged based on the pieces going togther (like older childrens legos). However, not the case. Random order in bags. Makes for more confusion.
Once together, toy is sturdy and my daughter has enjoyed playing with it. Animals and people are hard to put in place though.

I purchased this set for my son's 3rd birthday and it was a hit! He really enjoys putting it together and taking it apart. He does need a little help building the barn. It is a good value for a long lasting toy.
