I purchased this for my daughter for her 5th birthday. She has been enjoying Calico Critters since she was two and a half years old. As children grow and interests change, toys often fall by the wayside. I have found that the Calico Critters have great lasting power in our home that make them worth the hefty price tag. Yes it is plastic and yes they are rather pricey, but these playsets and critters have much longevity for creative play. As my daughter gets older, her play schemes get more complex and sophisticated making them worth the investment.
The Baby Playhouse Windmill is particularly cute with the turnable windmill and makes the inside mobile spin. It's nice to combine it with some of our other Calico Critter collections. The attention to detail is particularly enchanting to young children. Being that it is plastic, my two year old did get his hands on it and break off one of the little outside gates/doors, so it may not be ideal for children who play hard with their toys or if you have mischievous younger siblings around. This one like our other Calico Critter products is cleverly and intelligently designed and charms both the adult and child alike.

My 3 1/2 year old received this for Christmas and it has been a hit! She has spent hours playing with it and I can't wait to add on to it through time. Just know that it is only big enough for the Calico babies, the other family members are too big to fit inside.
Best Deals for Calico Critters: Baby Playhouse Windmill
First of all, my daughter would be angry if she knew I was writing this, but I want you parents to know what you are getting. If you have purchased any Calico Critter playsets in the past and you just want this one, there is nothing to say. You know what you are getting into. However, if Calico Critters are new to you, try to find something else to appease your child. I think the Calico Critter playsets, and this is no different, include too many small parts for the cost. They get lost and eventually become vaccuum food. They look great on the shelf...and that is where my daughter leaves them. I don't want to discourage any parents buying this for a daughter who will play and take care of this toy, but buy something else first, to get a taste of the Calico Critters world. If not, have little zip-lock baggies ready.
Honest reviews on Calico Critters: Baby Playhouse Windmill
I think this product is very imaginative and durable. The only reason I gave durability four stars instead of five is because there are some small parts that come off (they are meant to), sometimes my daughter needs help putting them back on, but as far as the toy is made, it's made very durably. I'm sure this toy is intended for children older than two, but we gave this toy to my daughter when she turned two because she had played with it at a toy store, and she LOVES this toy. She's now had it for six months and she still plays with it all the time. The rabbit family and baby rabbit twins accompanied the house when we gave it to her (purchased separately). It is expensive, but my daughter has definitely gotten our money's worth out of it. There are some smaller pieces that you'll want to remove if your child gets easily frusterated or is still younger than three or maybe even four (such as the very charming little baby mobile on the 2nd floor, which is in four parts). We also bought her the playground set, but at age two she couldn't yet get the rabbits to stay on the equipment, so we've set that aside until she's a little older.

My 3 year old daughter loves this toy. She plays with it everyday. Be aware that the pieces are extremely small. Should not be given to any child that would be put small objects in his/her mouth.
