Doc McStuffins Carry-Along Clinic Playset from Flair is a large fold out playset that easily folds away into a carry along box with a handle. It is very eye catching in bold pink and purple colours with a very glittery pink lid! Aimed at children aged 3+ and a toy that is suited to both boys and girls I knew my children would love this as they are keen on any kind of doctor related role play toys. Although the Doc McStuffins Clinic is predominantly feminine colours, 3yr old Mister B wasn’t fazed by this at all and got has had endless play with this.

The case unfolds to reveal a clinic set up with a table to put patients on to the left, a Lambie figure to examine which comes sitting on here and to the right is a sink with a turnable tap that clicks around.

In the centre are are the doctors equipment, a syringe, a thermometer, otoscope and a stethoscope. The first three instruments handily clip on to the back wall and the stehoscope fits into a slide out drawer underneath.

You do have to balance the doors not too wide apart otherwise the unit tends to tip backwards, alternatively I just propped it up against a cupboard to save any frustrations that the children had with it.

Also on the inside of the is an interactive panel with four different character panels that slide in. The panel can be used as it sits on the lid or taken off and held in the child’s hands or on the floor. There are buttons to press and the panels light up showing the characters ailment and suggests which medical instrument to use to help them get better.

Mister B was particularly fascinated by this especially the song from the tv show which he sings along to and now knows every word to. He can’t help but sing with a huge grin on his face and with the accent!

All all the parts are made of plastic, they all feel strong and well made which is good as I think they will get lots of play value so they need to be durable. I like the way that the playset folds up with all the pieces contained inside. The carry handle is nice so that the child can carry it along to any medical emergency they come across.

My two have loved playing with this although not without a little bickering as to who is going to have which instrument, but they did learn to share and played well together. There are endless possiblities for play whether they gave medical attention to Lambie, Miss M’s dolls or even giving each other a medical examination!

The Doc McStuffins Clinic Playset is definitely an impressive size and a good, durable build. There’s various pieces to keep the children entertained and I’m sure this will be a must have Christmas present for some, with it’s glittery lid and bright pink and purple features, I’m sure there’s many little girls out there that would love this!

All reviews are my own and my family’s opinions and we received the play set in order to write the review.

Any young Doc McStuffins fans will be familiar with Lambie, the cute little lamb who loves to help her friend Dottie. Unfortunately in this Spotty Lambie playset, she isn’t feeling very well and comes covered in red spots. This set enables young children to act the part of the doctor and make poor Lambie better.

The playset consists of a good sized Lambie, perfect for cuddles and role play. She has a soft rubberised body and limbs with a pretty net skirt. Both her arms and legs move to enable play. The set also contains a glittery magnifying glass, sponge, pot of cream (empty), plaster cast, plaster box and four removable plaster stickers.

The set is aimed and both boys and girls age 3+ and one thing both my children love is playing doctors. They are always asking for anything medical related so I knew this is a toy they would enjoy. Mister B who is 3yrs old was the first to examine Spotty Lambie to see what was wrong.

Spotty Lambie comes covered in red dots to make her look poorly. Being thermo sensitive ink, these just require a little rub with the magic sponge or a finger to make them disappear, therefore making Lambie all better again. Mister B was fascinated by this and was also kept amused when they reappeared again requiring him to quickly grab the magic sponge again.

Miss M enjoyed putting the plaster cast on Lambie’s leg and also showing Mister B how to care for her. Mister B eagerly watched and took on board exactly how to care for a sick patient! The little plasters included are cute and they loved to stick them to wherever they decided Lambie had hurt herself, in this case it was Lambie’s ear. Mister B loves inspecting Lambie with the little magnifying glass and even hunts around the house looking for things through it. They then decided to put Lambie to bed and Miss M carefully wrapped Lambie up in a blanket to go to sleep. Get well soon Lambie!

The Spotty Lambie playset from Doc McStuffins is a great way to encourage children to care for others. It builds up their role play skills and gives them an insight into how to treat people that are ill. We thought this was a great value playset probably best suited to children aged 3-5 years.
