Playmobil – My Take Along Western City – COMPETITION

September 5, 2012 by admin 243 Comments

We are still very new to the world of Playmobil, but all three of my children love this set. It features a bank and sheriffs office complete lots of great features such as a safe and gun cabinet. You also get 2 horses, a sheriff, bank teller and a bandit.

The thing that has surprised and pleased me the most about Playmobil is the attention to detail. The jail in the sheriffs office has a tiny bolt on the door  and the sheriff even has a clip on belt complete with a holster for his gun.

The set is recommended for children aged 4 and over, but even my almost two year old has spent many a happy hour playing the horses, pulling the people on and off and making them talk to each other. Not so long ago toys like this would have been banished to my 5 year olds bedroom, but thankfully H has finally stopped putting things in her mouth.

What interested me the most watching my children play with the Playmobil was the different ways they played with it. Z was very keen to get it all built up correctly, and even made a little animation with it. He is more interested in building toys than actually playing with them. However, S who is almost 4 can spend hours moving around the furniture and people, making them ‘talk’ to each other in different voices and swapping around accessories. This set is perfect for her. When we are finished playing all the bits fit inside the bank/sheriff office keeping everything safe for next time.

This set can help:

  • encourage creativity
  • improve fine motor skills
  • and improve hand  – eye coordination.

My Take Along Western City retails at £19.99 which we think is good value the level of detail and years worth of play you get from this set.

We received the Take Along Western set for the purpose of this review.

    Playmobil is the all time favourite toy in our home. The kids spend hours making “set up” – scenes and landscapes, in all sorts of nooks and crannies as well as all over the floor.

At the time I thought it was going to be one of those things I bought which after a couple of weeks he’d lose interest with but he hasn’t.He’s played and played with it. There are smaller add on sets which he’s saved his pocket money up to buy.It’s well built , virtually unbreakable and ther’s a huge range of different sets to buy whatever the sex of your child or what they’re interested in.I’d love to win this for my son – maybe his pirates and cowboys can have a battle!

    I will be honest, and say that I find Playmobile sets quite expensive. Around £130 for a full large size set, such as the farm – so they only get bought at special occasions. I do however love the durability of the products, they last a long time, very sturdy – and have quite a bit of detail in the contents, as far as young childrens toys go.

    I love Playmobil as it takes me back to my childhood. My sister and I would spend hours on rainy days playing with all of our Playmobil, from the hospital set we had to the little café. We used to visit Toys ‘r’ us and spend even longer looking at all the wonderful sets we wanted for Christmas. There are just too many to choose from. Unfortunately my parents gave most of our Playmobil away as we grew older but they did keep a few of the sets which my children (especially our four year old daughter) love playing with when they visit Grandma & Grandad. We’ve got a nice collection growing at home now too – summer beach house, water park, playground set etc. It definitely brought back memories when setting them all up 🙂

    Hi, does Rafflecopter show the winner’s name or is it just my laptop which is a problem? Can only see that the contest is over. Thank you.
