Best Lego Sets for Girls 2011

Best Lego Sets for Girls 2012

by Katinka

I played with Lego growing up, me and my brother had a big box full of Lego blocks from various sets. But then I grew up in rather a curious family. In most circumstances finding the right Lego set for a girl is just a tad bit harder than finding one for a boy. This page is meant to help you find suitable cute Lego sets for your daughter, granddaughter or friend. Shown here is the LEGO Creator Winter Toy Shop  with 815 pieces.  

The sets I found are suitable for girls aged 3 (Duplo) up to 14 – in short, the age girls usually stop playing with toys like this. Of course Lego is just the kind of toy to help your girl develop spatial awareness that will in turn help her with her math. It certainly helped me, judging by results: I’m a trained math teacher. 

  LEGO® Pink Brick Box This is really the only set listed here that is aimed specifically at girls. The other sets will appeal to small boys AND girls. This one contains pink blocks, flowers, details to build houses and fences as well as a pony.  
  DUPLO LEGO Ville Baby Zoo V70 As said: this is not a set aimed specifically at girls, but they will love it anyhow, if they’re aged 24 months to 5 years.  
 

 LEGO Creator Winter Toy Shop  815 pieces

Of course this is the perfect lego set for Christmas: it contains figures like a cat, snowman, jack-in-the-box, stuffed animal, toy train, robot and toy car and all the ingredients for a cute winter decor in the snow, including a toy shop with tools. 

  LEGO Creator Apple Tree House – 539 Piece set  This toy shop is rather tough: perfect for the 12 year old girl who loves playing with Lego and already has lots of experience putting easier sets together.
  LEGO Creator Log Cabin This is the sort of set you can really use to enlarge your collection of Lego blocks and features. The log cabin is doable for girls aged 7 through 12.
