Legos....Just For Girls!
This is kind of cool! My dcg's (and my own DD) have always enjoyed Lego's just as much as the boys....it's about time the makers start recognizing that!

That is cool! At least the figurines don't look like Barbie.
We visited Legoland in October and now my kids are hooked. The girls wanted the set that has a mini-fig girl and more "girly" colors, parts (flowers) all in a pink box.
(Had to laugh at the quote that the girl set was perfect for a Perry the Platapus) -
There are already lego girls I don't see why they need to look like that with miniskirts and all that.Comment

I'm a girl and I loved (and still love) classic legos. Not quite sure why everything in the universe has to have a pink and purple girl version. Whatev's. It's not worth my time and energy to care. And I will probably avoid them stridently and my in-laws will purchase them for my DD.
Hee hee! Look, I have a signature!Comment

yeah, but the ones marketed for girls before were more or less just pink colored blocks.
Check out their web-site and the blocks they currently sell for girls...http://shop.lego.com/en-US/catalog/p...uestid=9340852 :confused:

Me too. Thats my first memory of loving a toy. But I do wish they're would have been some feminine parts in there too. If you notice, many baby toys are in gender neutral bright colors such as turquoise, tangerine, purple, lime green...it would be great if they extended that to older kids toys. I mean, cobalt blue and forest green don't really appeal to me either, but neither does princess pink.I'm a girl and I loved (and still love) classic legos.

However I don't particularly like that girl lego person...why couldn't she have been wearing pink pants? Or not been blonde and blue-eyed? That's why we don't do barbies...smhComment

Yeah the mini-skirt was a head scratcher for me. I read about this on NPR and the audio clip admitted it was somewhat "stereotypical". They have bigger hands "to hold handbags and hairbrushes more easily." Hmm why not Dr.'s bags or laptops?
but I like the idea of legos being more geared to how girls play and build with more emphasis on versatility and role play.Comment

my dd is going to love them. I can't wait to go to florida again and visit lego land. This year when we went they closed lego land, my ds was so upset (considering we drove for 2 days to get to florida) I can't wait to go again, my kids will be so excited. All my kids love legos, I just got ds 2 lego books, they are big and heavy but one talks about legos and the other has all sorts of building ideas, really cool. I bought them thru scholastics.Comment

My kids are both lego geeks
My daughter got a pink set for her bday, but actually prefers the Star Wars ones We went to Germany last year and they had a blast at Legoland and next year when we visit San Diego, that is the first place they said they want to go!
