~Review~

This was bought as a present for my five year old daughter just after we had bought her the police station! However it is good because it fits in well with the emergency services theme and is the start of another section of Lego she can play with. It is available for £9.99 but it is also available from most other shops.

This is aimed at children from five years upwards and I would say this is probably about right as for building it. However I would say that children with delicate fingers that even younger ones could play with it. My daughter managed to follow the instructions and only had a bit of difficulty with a couple of bits, mainly winding in the fire hose. Also she had to have her dad's help to put the stickers on because they are very tricky and can easily go wrong as they need to be placed on first time.

As with all Lego they are very realistic and comes with quite a lot of little features like the hose, walkie-talkie and a fire extinguisher. It also includes the fire chief who has a helmet and visor and an axe. This is quite a tough fire truck and is easy to play with but all the little pieces are easy to lose.

This is a great addition to your set but could be a good little starting point if you want to find out if your child likes building Lego. For £10 it is well priced whether buying for your children or as a present for a friend or family.
