That (well the purple version) is what we are getting A for Christmas! She will have just turned one. It was on sale on Amazon a while back. They may not be able to play with it in the conventional way at that age, but I'm sure they will play with it.

They had a house like this in LO's toddler room and it seemed to get a decent amount of use. She is now 22 months and we have some LP toys that she uses from time to time. I agree that having noises/other attractions would be helpful, but I think it is a good idea!

Yes, we got the Little People Zoo for C's first birthday- he liked to just hold the animals for the first few months, then he started figuring out he could do things with them after, moving them around, putting them in cars, activating the noise areas.

Right now (21 months) his favorites are the school bus and airplane, he knows how to roll them around and loves to put all sorts of random things inside. My nephews are almost 3 and they still like playing with the Little People toys.

It wasn't until much closer to age two that my daughter really used imagination to "play" with things like that. Like @SugarplumsMom: said. She may play with the people but not the way intended before that.

We decided to invest in some other LP sets (she loves the school with the swing, the bus, and the barn). We will invest in a normal dollhouse when she's a bit older.

@photojane: I want to play with it!!!

I think she would use it, we are getting DD (she will be 14 months) some Little People stuff for Christmas too!

@photojane: I think she would have fun with it, even if she doesn't understand how to play with it. Plus, I looked at toys that she would be able to play with until next Christmas. (PS, That play set is adorable and I just might have to get one for DD now!)

Like others have said, she won't play with it in the conventional way, but she would probably still like it! I think my son would probably carry the people around or scatter them everywhere. If there are buttons to push that make sound, he would like that. I think it's a good option! Something she'll grow into and plus you like it too! I find that if I like DS's toys, it's more fun for me to sit with him and play with him.
