Fisher-Price Loving Family Home for the Holidays

Comments about Fisher-Price Loving Family Home for the Holidays:

We purchased the "Home For The Holidays" House for our daughter for Christmas when she was 4. This is her second Fisher Price dollhouse and she absolutely LOVED it! There are so many accessories and she loves that they light up and make sounds or play music. The accessories are reversible so she can play with the house in everyday mode or Christmas/Holiday mode! We have had the house for 1 1/2 years and have had no problems with and and she still plays with it all the time! Looking to purchase another for the Grandparents house!

This item was purchased as a birthday gift for my 4 yr old granddaughter and I was quite disappointed to find many items missing from this house which includes: the sticker sheet, the window planter boxes, plants, table wear, bed and sofa pillows, bedding, bows and towel. There are several broken spots in the floor tracking. I have never had so many problems with any of the Fisher Price products in the past and I am very disappointed in the product.

I purchased this dollhouse over the summer after much research and I am completely amazed with it, still. As a lover of dollhouses, I impatiently waited months for Christmas morning to share in my daughter's joy as she discovered this under the tree. She has had hours of enjoyment discovering all the details of this set. She loves to set the family around the table for a "snack." I am amazed at how she interacts with the dolls; Each one is treated like an individual friend and has their own likes and tasks around the house. Often, the mother and father dolls will 'dance' to the music of the Christmas tree or fireplace, and the toddler girl ( lovingly named 'Mel') assists the Mother making cookies. She is in her own world and couldn't be happier. Because I was just so excited about this purchase, I couldn't wait until Christmas eve to put everything together and inspect all the accessories. SO, several weeks before the big reveal I rolled up my sleeves and got to work with the minor assembly required. The pieces were all accounted for and fit together nicely, the instructions were direct and complete, and the sticker sheets were correctly numbered. The whole process was easy and enjoyable. I closely inspected each accessory for any damage. The kitchen island/ sink assembly had one leg that was deformed, as if there was not enough plastic poured into the mold. However, I quickly received a perfect replacement. Overall, this dollhouse is AMAZING. The Christmas decor really adds to the fun and my daughter and I are in love with the sweet doll family and their home. As a girl, my younger sister had a Fisher Price dollhouse that provided (and still provides) countless hours of playtime, and I have created custom dollhouses of my own. I appreciate the quality and thought that has gone into this product and I know it will satisfy children of all ages.

We purchased this item to be a Christmas present for our 3 year old daughter. We were HIGHLY disappointed when we pulled it out of the box, and found a very sizable crack running across two sides of the house. This is NOT a small crack. However, it was Christmas Eve, it was her "big present," and this particular house being sold out at EVERY store within 50 miles, there wasn't much to be done about it at that point. We did go ahead and give it to her, but as we progressed through the directions, I was further disappointed to find many of the stickers mis-labelled, so several are not in the right place on the house because of terrible directions. Additionally, I feel it must have been missing some of the stickers, as the directions said there were several that did not have assigned places, so that the user could determine where they should go. However, this was definitely not the case, there were no miscellaneous stickers. As we got further into it, one of the Christmas decor pieces {the stockings for the mantle} was also broken. It is a beautiful house overall. I love the aesthetic, especially the coloring. Our daughter adores it and loves playing with all the furniture. However, I was definitely incredibly disappointed by the sizable crack, terrible directions, and broken pieces, and found myself wishing I'd gone with my original instinct to get her a wooden dollhouse instead.

I spent quite a lot of time shopping for dollhouses before settling on this one for my 4 yo daughter. It was relatively easy to assemble and included so many unique features! I was surprised when my 8 yo son was also drawn into playing along with her. The items are very easy for little hands to handle. The only fault I found was that the screws required to attach the front porch did not seem to be included. I was able to overcome this by some toolbox scavenging.

I don't think a toy has ever made me speechless after putting it together. I just kept opening up little bags of cool accessories...pillows, and throw rugs, a dog!, place settings...it's really fantastic. If I had this as a little girl, it would have seen hours and hours of play, and entertained my friends and I for years. I researched dollhouses for months before buying this one. I knew the furniture can be hard to find for the Loving Family pink houses, so I liked that this came with enough to get started. I think the house is classic looking, and it actually looks like houses in our neighborhood in the city. The Loving Family furniture is detailed, realistic, easy to handle, and is suitable for quite young to 100. I LOVE that the little spatulas/remotes/tea kettle are attached with string to the oven/tv or whatever. Every girl wants that realistic element, but doesn't want to loose it either. The dollhouse is HUGE and heavy, with way more play space on the floors than the dream or grand houses. I have to figure out where we are going to put it in our living room:0 I love that it folds up- it will keep the dust off the floors when it's not being played with (which won't be often!). I am happy that we can add furniture sets for birthdays, etc. I like best that this house has wider floors and lots of detail. I know that the space can handle the large Loving Family furniture that can be a tight fit in the pink houses. It really makes for a great setting for open ended play, and gives us lots of ideas for adding more furniture later. The holiday additions are so neat. It has made me feel more Christmas-y and more in tune to the holidays and the specialness of them, as corny as that sounds. Go for this one if you don't mind a more realistic house with darker outside colors. It really is roomy!

We bought this dollhouse for our two yr old and it is stunning! The best part for our family is that the mom and dad have brown hair...(just bc we're caucasian doesn't mean we're blonde). We know our little girl will love this dollhouse and enjoy it for many years! Well worth the money.

I bought this house for my second daughter (my first has the twin dollhouse from a couple of years ago) and she loves it! The Christmas things are so sweet and I love that it can all be removed so she can use the house year-round, though both the girls use the Christmas decorations everyday. What a great house!

This is my first Loving Family purchase, for a 8 mo old! That's right I know a deal when I see one. In case this isn't around 2 years from now, I scored it on sale for less than 30% off. I have allowed my 3 year old son to test drive it. HE LOVES IT. The house is durable, the book is adorable, the rooms are large, it is not PINK. The pieces are wonderful. You can decorate it for Christmas! BUY IT you will not regret it. I still have my FP Loving Family pieces from 1983. I hope this lasts half as long and I will be happy. It is gorgeous.
