The 397-piece LEGO® Creator 3in1 toy set offers a fun build to little animal fans aged 7 and up and is a great birthday or holiday gift guaranteed to make them happy. Taking the time to look closely, be in the moment and marvel at our feathered friends will help make the most of your spring visit and may even lift your mood too!

LEGO® Creator 3in1 sets allow kids to enjoy amazing imaginative play as they devise fun stories around the 3 different models in every box. Visiting our green (and blue!) spaces gives you the perfect opportunity to explore nature’s playground and have lots of fresh-air fun, with unique wetland wildlife to spark imaginations and help you really connect to nature.The LEGO® Creator 3in1 Safari Wildlife Tree House (31116) building set will grip kids’ imaginations with 3 models in 1: a tree house toy, plane toy and boat toy. All together, the discrete parts form a quite attractive diorama. The tree house and giraffe are perfectly scaled together, and a camera is included for the figures to capture what must be quite a magical moment on their safari. The flamingo seems slightly unrelated to the rest of the build, however, as there is nothing else included to indicate any water nearby, and also feels slightly too large.

The newest addition – Camille the Curlew – also helps tell a key conservation story about our role in the ongoing Eurasian curlew recovery project, which is working to reverse the decline of this enigmatic wading bird. The second stop is at an Acacia tree. An owl has made its nest in the tree and stands guard over its eggs. The minifigures get to see a monkey swinging from the branches as it looks for fruit to eat and there is also a spider crawling up the trunk for those brave enough to go take a look. The Acacia scene includes: When built, the safari off-roader measures over 3" (10cm) high, 6" (16cm) long and 2" (6cm) wide. That's enough room to store all the gear kids need for a successful safari. These experiences can fill us with a sense of wonder and possibility. What firsts will you see and how will they make you feel? For a special memento of spring, have a go at making a spring-time nature mobile. After a day spent having fun amongst amazing wetlands nature, don’t forget to continue the adventure at home!Whilst I don’t agree with some of the colour choices of the tree house itself, I think the set is pretty good value for money for almost 400 parts, a variety of cute wild animals, and three decent models to choose from.
