Holiday Wish Guide: Doc McStuffins Pet Vet Collection + Take Care of Me Lambie

Over the past few years, Disney Junior’s DOC McSTUFFINS has been a fixture here at Rock Father HQ. I’ve written about the series at length, and it continues to inspire The Rock Daughters – piquing their curiosity and building a true sense of compassion. Earlier this Fall, Doc took an animal-centric turn for a special collection of episodes released as DOC McSTUFFINS: PET VET. In these special episodes, Doc and her friends shifted from caring for stuffed animals and toys to straight-up animals. It was good chance to refresh the series, and for Just Play to offer a refreshed assortment of toys, ones that land here in my 2015 Holiday Wish Guide. Additionally, one of the hottest toys of this Holiday season is the animatronic  Take Care of Me Lambie – the exact kind of Lambie that kids have been waiting for ever since Doc opened her clinic a few years ago.

Take Care of Me Lambie features multiple points of interaction, with over 50 responses that are a mix of lights, sound and movement. My personal favorite is when Lambie “goes stuffed,” which I often time my own actions to when playing with the girls – so just like on the show, when the grownups enter the picture, the toys go stuffed! Lambie truly provokes a desire to “care,” and kids love the feeling of doing good.

As part of the DOC McSTUFFINS: PET VET line, there’s a little of everything available – from the large Check-up Center (we have the original from two years ago) to the Pet Clinic Doll & Accessories, Doctor scrubs and a Pet Carrier. Here at our house, it’s all about the Pet Clinic Doll, which comes complete with a miniature version of the check-up station, and versions of Lambie and Findo that interact with the station. There’s visible x-rays, a slide, and perfectly-scaled tools to help Doc provide the best care possible!

DOC McSTUFFINS toys from Just Play are available at Amazon and other retailers nationwide.
