This entry in Lego's popular, female-oriented, 'Friends' series is a particularly rewarding installment. The set includes an Olivia mini-doll figure and depicts her as a scientist using high tech equipment to explore the night sky. That gender-positive theme, when added to the building experience young girls absorb in assembling the set's 185 pieces, forms a particularly gratifying meshwork of fun, learning, and creativity. The set's other components include a Zobo the robot figure, blue and pink SUV, stand-up board with sky map, and an observatory tower with ladder, telescope, and turning platform. These varied and colorful components inspire many hours of fun and exciting role play once assembled. The set's smaller accessories - a computer, magnifying glass, sticky notes, and cup for hot chocolate - enrich the play experience by enabling kids to flesh out an unusual level of detail in their ongoing imaginings.
