We had primarily vehicles, so no huge sets or anything, but my son hadn't really looked at them since he was around 4. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-get-rid-of-the-little-people-sets#post-2654919 Sun, 20 Nov 2016 03:48:38 +0000 LCTBQE 2654919@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anonysquire: @T.H.O.U.: @PinkElephant: I found my husband's set from the mid-80s buried under junk at my MIL's house--the old ones are so much better! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-get-rid-of-the-little-people-sets#post-2654908 Sun, 20 Nov 2016 00:44:01 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2654908@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PinkElephant: @anonysquire: my mom gave me my old little sets. I got rid of our newer big people sets because they aren't compatible and it felt silly having two sets. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-get-rid-of-the-little-people-sets#post-2654903 Sun, 20 Nov 2016 00:22:31 +0000 PinkElephant 2654903@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anonysquire: this! Even though they change in appearance over the years, I feel like the little people toys are pretty timeless and will keep at least some of ours. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-get-rid-of-the-little-people-sets#post-2654893 Sat, 19 Nov 2016 23:48:53 +0000 anonysquire 2654893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom still has all ours from when we were kids!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-get-rid-of-the-little-people-sets#post-2654832 Sat, 19 Nov 2016 18:32:50 +0000 birdofafeather 2654832@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Cherrybee: we definitely got more now that S is 1! I was about to pack away the one farm we had when a few months ago, both of them were into it. So we got a camper van and a princess castle for gifts and they're all getting lots of play. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-get-rid-of-the-little-people-sets#post-2654831 Sat, 19 Nov 2016 18:31:38 +0000 birdofafeather 2654831@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@2littlepumpkins: yep, I think they're more interesting to both of them to play together than when DD1 was alone playing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-get-rid-of-the-little-people-sets#post-2654812 Sat, 19 Nov 2016 16:17:10 +0000 Cherrybee 2654812@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 3.5yr old loves her little people still. I'm worrying that she won't have grown out of them before the little one is old enough to play with them and we will have to buy more! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-get-rid-of-the-little-people-sets#post-2654810 Sat, 19 Nov 2016 16:13:09 +0000 2littlepumpkins 2654810@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@birdofafeather: +1!! And now the younger one plays with them too. We mostly have the transportation themed ones though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-get-rid-of-the-little-people-sets#post-2654794 Sat, 19 Nov 2016 14:28:17 +0000 skipra 2654794@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I also have a 2 and 4 year old but only 1 Little People truck and my 4 year old is asking for more. I guess he likes to play with them at school. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-get-rid-of-the-little-people-sets#post-2654790 Sat, 19 Nov 2016 14:24:01 +0000 birdofafeather 2654790@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>well, my almost 4 year old still enjoys playing with them (probably more so than 2 years ago!) so i don't see getting rid of them for a while! lots of make believe happening there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-get-rid-of-the-little-people-sets#post-2654751 Sat, 19 Nov 2016 11:32:38 +0000 sorrycharlie 2654751@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have so many. I feel horrible even asking this - my youngest isn't even two. She, and my 4 year old, both play with them. But I'm just getting so annoyed with the "big toys" everywhere..ha. I generally put them in the basement and rotate them out (klip klop stable, the barn, the zoo, princess castle, pirate ship, and there may be another). </p> <p>My youngest wants to play with all of her older sister's toys (shopkins, dolls, etc.) but I also don't want to "rush" her "toddlerhood" lol.</p> <p>When did you finally get rid of that stuff? </p>
