Product Description

The fantastical Fairytopia Enchanted Meadow Playset is a magical home for fairies, pixies and mermaids, too. Girls can make Wonder Fairy and her friends fly gracefully over the Enchanted Meadow Playset. There is a waterfall that opens to reveal a vanity for Wonder Fairy and a sprite friend. A large iris with petals opens to reveal a tiny sprite house with two sprite dolls that live there. The Petal Pixie dolls can rest on the smaller leaf beds of the iris, and the top petals open to reveal another flowerbed, too. Includes lots of other wonderful accessories to help create a magical world for girls to play and pretend.

My four year daughter was captivated by this in the box at Toys R Us. She loves mermaids and fairies and this toy grabbed her...it appears to have alot going on and it is very 'sparkly'. It has two tiny, adorable fairy dolls that supposably can interact with the playset in many ways such as 'flying' around in a circle when they are clipped to a leaf that spins. At Toys R Us, my husband and I gave in and stomached the price at the cash register. Once home, we put the thing together which was relatively easy, just lots of things to snap and stick. Our girls were all over it...for about an hour. Reason being, it falls apart very easily. Each flower petal attaches seperately and they pop off so easy that after a few days, you couldn't even open and close the flowers to 'hide' the fairies because the petals just snap off when rotated even though they are suppose to move this way. In addition, one leaf has a kind of clip that the child is suppose to attach the fairy too so that they can spin the leaf around and it appears the fairy is flying. Neither my four year old nor my persistent five year old could manage the clip and I even had trouble, although my oldest did eventually figure out a way to balance the fairy and it stayed up for a few rotations. Today, a month after purchasing this expensive piece of pourly designed plastic, I gathered the many snapped off pieces and through this thing away. What a waste! Don't buy this toy. It looks enchanting but it is one of the cheapest toys I have ever had in six years of motherhood.

This set is really spectacular! Finally something truly different, and they have put so much magical fun into this pretty playset. It is one of my 6-yr-olds favorite gifts this year, and you really get a lot of play value for 30 bucks! The set is gorgeous, and the plastic is heavy not cheap flimsy stuff. For added value, the Polly Pockets play nicely in this set, too!

Like all Barbie items, it takes a LONG time to get it out of the box (have wire cutters, scissors, and patience handy!) Once it is out, assembly is pretty simple (a few easily placed stickers and a few pieces to snap on). It is worth the effort, there is so much to do with this set! Be careful with the 'flying' aspect though, we found that the little fairie and pixie dolls will fly right off unless you have a full-size Barbie flying along to slow down the spin! That is really the only negative we have found. I can't see much 'educational' value, like most Barbie items, unless you count the use of imagination! But Barbie isn't intended to be an educational toy. (Had to rate that aspect anyway, so gave a 3.)

I also HIGHLY recommend the Petal Fairies sets to go with this -- the flower seats are very well made and so beautiful! (The Polly Pockets also fit perfectly in those. My daughter uses her Mermaid Polly in a flower seat all of the time.) The Wonder Fairies (full-sized Barbies) are also gorgeous, with rooted eyelashes and pretty wings that flutter! My daughter thinks they are the prettiest of all of the Barbies. You can remove the wings and use them as regular Barbies, too.

We are really looking forward to seeing the DVD when it releases this spring! We recommend this entire Fairytopia toy line!

My daughter is a barbie enthusiest! There isn't much she doesn't have in the fantasy line of barbie's. But I do have this to say to the other poor reviews...You must be kidding! My 5 and 6 year olds LOVE this toy!!! They play with it very often and have had it ever since the day it hit the market. As a parent, if you read the instructions, and follow them (they are extremely simple!) they explain how everything works. Plus with a little common sense you can figure it out easily. Unless you have a child that is unbelieably hard on toys and breaks every thing...then your child will be getting a GREAT Barbie toy. There are a few small parts. I do highly recommend this toy! It is wonderful and ours is in perfect shape...same as the day we bought it. It is played with quite often.
