The urge to build this was immediate from Addie, and it was hard to fend her off. In fact, it got bumped up in the queue for that very reason, a little to my dismay, but it's hard to say "no" sometimes... and there lies my true weakness.
Recommended for kids ages 4-10, this 305 piece set is not a super-challenging build (though some small bricks will require patience, and assistance for the younger builders), but it's certainly a fun one. The set includes not only Barbie's decked-out Camper RV, but also a little "oasis" of sorts, a picnic table, and a fine scooter for Chelsea.
There's really a lot going on here, and some neat details for repeat play. The camper has removable bunk beds, two seats in the cab (complete with seatbelts), makeup and hair stations in the back (with really tiny lipstick and brushes - so watch it if you have little ones running around like I do), a little tv, and a the cutest fire pit that Ive ever seen.
So, "Glamping" - it's "glamorous camping," or camping without leaving behind certain luxuries. I can dig that, and with around three feet of snow outside, building this set was just another reminder that warmer weather is on the horizon, and that the girls and I will be playing outside again very soon.
In the meantime... I have an idea for a custom mashup build that would find Barbie's camper getting merged with the HOT WHEELS Super Blitzen Monster Truck. Hmmm...
