The Fisherprice Little People Lil Movers Airplane was bought for my son a as a gift for his first birthday.

It is currently available from Argos at £17 or from Amazon.co.uk at just £16.13 with free delivery. The manufacturer's age recommendation is from 12 months onward.

The Lil Movers Airplane is a rather lightweight plane with wheels at the bottom and a handle situated at the top. The colours are predominantly blue, green and white. There are three windows to one side and two windows plus an opening door to the other side. The front of the plane has a smiling face.

Inside the plane there are pegs for four Fisherprice Little People characters, one of which is for the pilot situated at the front of the plane. There are three such characters included. Three of the pegs cause the characters to bob up and down when the plane is pushed along on its wheels, one however is stationary. In the main body of the plane there is also a place to fix a crate which is also included in the set.

When the pilot's peg is depressed one of four sounds are emitted. One such sound is a jingle which in my opinion seems rather poorly written. When the sounds are emitted, two red LEDs flash at either side of the plane.

I am not a huge fan of the Fisherprice Little People range, or indeed Fisherprice in general. I find that they have a flimsy appearance and are very rushed in terms of design with many features either being overlooked or not fully thought out.

My son initially paid no attention to this toy and despite my dislike for this range I was somewhat surprised at his disinterest. However quite recently he seems to have developed a fascination with it. He pops his toys into the body of the plane and enjoys pressing the peg at the front. I would not say that it is a favourite amongst his toys but he is finally getting some use from it.

In terms of durability this toy is still in great condition, however it simply hasn't been played with as much as my little boy's more favoured toys.

In summary this toy is OK but not spectacular. Every child is of course different in terms of interests so by all means give it a try if you feel it may suit yours.
