This chicken house set is sweet-looking and very high-quality. It features a chicken house in natural wood tones with a green roof and two openings, plus a hen, a rooster, a chick, and two eggs. The hutch roof (the smaller area of the henhouse) can lift up.Everything is made of smooth wood that's lightweight but also sturdy. The chicken family is painted on both ides, and the colors are rich and attractive. All the pieces are just the right size for little hands, and the chicken family pieces are chunky enough to grip easily. There are enough pieces to promote imaginative play, but there are no gimmicks or excessive additions.This set will work well for young children, though I'd still reserve it for children who are past the stage of putting things in their mouths. The smallest egg piece in particular might be a choking risk.This set can age along with your child. It can be played with on its own, but it would also make a great addition to a dollhouse-- allowing a dollhouse family to raise chickens in the yard. It's self-contained but can also be part of a larger play world.This is well-designed, high-quality, and sturdy enough to last through many children. The price seems very fair, and it has excellent value because it's not a cheaply-made plastic toy that will break quickly and be forgotten. This is built to last, and it's timeless rather than gimmicky.
