4.0 out of 5 stars Fun but frustrating
Ello is fun but the figures I make don't stay together, the head pieces fall off.

3.0 out of 5 stars Ello is more fun with other figure sets
I gave 3 stars for the fun-factor because the dolls you make fall apart if played with... not very fun at all.

The ello building sets that you use to make the structures are fun though!

Personally my daughter and I think ello is more fun when you use it to make houses for little dolls and my little pony.
Its perfect for the plastic miniature sets like hamtaro,...

I think that Ello toys are great. It is well worth the money for your kids. They can build fairy cities, underwater towns or just regular neighborhoods. It is very educational because they can use their imaginations and make whatever they want. i am eveven years old and i love to play with Ello.

4.0 out of 5 stars Ello building sets, February 27, 2004

These Ello sets are great for girls. They are the feminine version of Duplos or Legos, except they are much more whimsical. There's plenty of 'pink' to keep little girls happy. My 7 year old daughter loves to build fairies and kingdoms and uses them with her polly pocket dolls and accessories. My 5 year old still loves her Legos, but she likes to build big chunky jewelry and little houses with the Ello parts for her stuffed animals.

My five year old received this for Christmas and loves it. WE are on our way to get some more! Can play by herself and loves to come up with a variety of things to make. She has made a neighborhood of Ellos.

This review is from: Ello Fairytopia (Toy)
I bought this set for my girls, who are 5,8, and 10. They love it. The fun is in creating characters and spaces for them, not in playing as much with what they create. The possibilities are endless, because the characters and spaces they create are abstract (when compared to lego, with which you can build a literal house). This toy, because of what it is, requires a spatial creativity, in my opinion. There are very few toys that engage spatial and visual creativity like this set does, and I am so happy to have found it. I could not recommend it enthusiastically, especially for a child that is visual-spatial or creative in an abstract three dimensional way.

My sister and I play with the fairytopia for hours and hours and hours. It is so much fun to play with. It helps young kids learn their shapes. I take it lots of places.

Ello is extremely cool and sooo fun! You can build stuff for your room, jewelry or cute people. The most expensive sets cost about as much as a Barbie doll, maybe a little more. I bought this set last week and I just love it! Some of the pieces spin and others are glittery. I've made fairies and bugs and all sorts of things. There aren't any building pieces, but lots of flowers and beads and things like that. And for just 7$ at Toys R' Us, this set is Ello-rific!

The ello building sets that you use to make the structures are fun though!

Personally my daughter and I think ello is more fun when you use it to make houses for little dolls and my little pony.
Its perfect for the plastic miniature sets like hamtaro, that come with little figures and furniture, but no house.
You might want to look for something like that to use in your ello instead.
