Are Little People Toy Sets ok for 3 years?
Shopping for a 3-year old girl and I saw a very cute Little People set....do you think that would be okay. At 2 I got her a little people set for Christmas and she loved it...but not sure now if she'd still be interested.
ETA: I love Little People so I am biased and need help please

I'd say no. My kids don't really play with them anymore.

I agree, dd is obsessed with dress up.
She also likes to do "projects" (arts & crafts) so maybe some Crayola Color Wonder paints (they have these cute glitter paint sets now) and some of those foam sticker projects at Michaels.

My little sister likes this stuff too - dress up or she got a make your own jewelry set she liked - but she obviously needed to do that with someone (me).

DD still plays with her Little People dollhouse...esp. now that she got a car and a few extra things to go with it.
But anyhow...I agree with the dress-up stuff. Princess stuff--eh. DD has a TON of Disney Princess stuff and I'm so sick and tired of it! But SHE loves it. She also loves to color and draw. Tea set, "food." Books. Barbie stuff--don't like it for a 3 year old, JMHO. ETA...I love Barbies too, just for girls a bit older.

I would say yes for a little boy. Not sure for a girl.

DD is almost 2.5 and is JUST starting to really get into the littl epeople stuff. She didnt like it up til a month or 2 ago. So id say yes to little people for a 3 yr old.
I also agree with any dress up stuff though too...

Re: Are Little People Toy Sets ok for 3 years?
I think Little people is still a good idea even at three. I would not go with Barbie unless you know the people well and know that they are into it. I am not a Barbie person and have already said no Barbies until my dd asks. I have a few friends who are quite against it too. I think those wood dress up dolls, puzzles, games, are all appropriate for a three year old.
