If you’re a fan of Hello Kitty and a fan of building block construction sets, then this is the perfect toy! The Hello Kitty Mega Bloks House is a 70 pcs kit complete with Hello Kitty and Mimmy figurines, that is super girly, utterly gorgeous and lots of fun too! Read our full review toy review.
What About Lego Sets?
Here at Tommy’s Toys we’re rather partial to building block construction sets, and we’d be lying if we didn’t admit that LEGO is our preferred brand, but whilst LEGO has many fantastic ranges aimed at both girls and boys, Megabloks are leading the way in appealing just to girls with the fabulous Hello Kitty range. For me this is a huge advantage and the main reason we’ve included it in our Top 10 Girls Toys, because if you have a very girly girl, it can be tricky to find toys that appeal to her inner construction goddess!
Hello Kitty Mega Bloks Play House and Other Sets
So, if you – like us – are prepared to let go of the LEGO bias, the Megabloks Hello Kitty House is a great starter set to the whole Mega Bloks Hello Kitty range which includes several other construction sets such as a School House, Candy Store, Flower Boutique, Playground and Picnic set.
Hello Kitty Mega Bloks Review
The Hello Kitty Mega Bloks House has 70 pieces in all; the main four-room house is already pre-assembled, and then it is up to your child to make and design each room, choosing the furniture and items that go inside. To this end the set comes with cute stickers that you put on different pieces to turn them into pieces of furniture and household appliances such as a chest of drawers or an oven.
And there are lots of extra stickers too for your child to add her own personalization to Hello Kitty’s house, so for example, she can decide exactly which items go on the bedroom shelf, or which photos to hang on the wall. Once the house is all set, there’s tons of fun to be had playing make-believe with the two figurines supplied with the set: Hello Kitty herself and her twin sister Mimmy.
Tommy’s Verdict
Our final verdict: this is a really cute set and perfect as a girls toy, with plenty of scope for creative play and the options of getting further Mega Bloks Hello Kitty sets give it a certain longevity, ideal for ages 4 and up – but with supervision for younger children as there are some very small pieces.
