If you’re looking to buy a gift for a young animal lover this holiday season, these toy animal sets offer everything from taking care of horses to incredible fantasy creatures.
These are gifts made for kids to build and rebuild time and time again! There are even options for those looking to rescue wildlife or add to a cat collection.
The mighty Tyrannosaurus rex deserves the very best of LEGO® display sets, and this collectable LEGO Jurassic World dinosaur featuring a 1:12-scale T. rex fossil skeleton with movable joints, including the skull, jaw, posable arms and tail, is worthy of the King of Dinosaurs. There’s an information plaque that attaches to the display stand, an amber piece, and two minifigures from the original Jurassic Park movie: Ellie Sattler and Alan Grant. Dino-lovers, this is for you!
Take the time to immerse yourself in a creative building project during the holidays with this LEGO Ideas Tuxedo Cat. This unique piece of home décor is the perfect gift idea for cat lovers who can choose to build this model with yellow or blue eyes or an open or closed mouth. You can also rotate its head and adjust the ears, paws and tail to place it in different playful poses.
This collectible building kit for adults includes illustrated instructions to guide you through every step of the mindful activity. You can also find instructions and digital 3D viewing tools in the LEGO Builder app to help create this brick-built Tuxedo Cat display piece.
If you know a child who loves the adventures of Bluey, Bingo, Chilli (Mum) and Bandit (Dad) (and the rest of the characters), then they’ll love this fun playhouse just like the one featured in the hit TV series. There’s a playroom, kitchen, two bedrooms and a garden with a tree, Jeremy the gnome, and a balloon to knock up into the air. To add the opportunity for storytelling, it comes with four minifigures – Bluey, Bingo, Chilli and Bandit – plus accessories, including a rainbow cape, wand and magnifying glasses.
Enjoy one set that has three different ways to build with the LEGO Creator 3in1 Wild Animals: Majestic Rhino with Birds. Nature kids and animal lovers will love the rhino figure with posable legs, feet, neck, head, ears, mouth and tail, and a snail, four birds and a patch of brick-built grass and water. And when they want to change, they can use the same bricks to make a posable hippo or walrus toy with a fish and a patch of ice. Endless play awaits!
Calling all explorers! Embark on epic Arctic adventures with the Explorer Science Lab truck, an articulated vehicle featuring 6-wheel suspension and deep-tread tires, built to conquer icy terrain. STEM-loving kids will have fun role-playing with the rooftop observatory, conducting scientific experiments in the lab, and relaxing in the living area, which features a kitchen, bathroom and bedroom. There’s also a snowmobile that’s ready to rev up for daring expeditions and a cave that’s home to a family of Arctic wolves. Wrap up warm, adventure awaits!
Create a truly stunning display model for your home or office this festive season with this fantastic building set for adults. The LEGO Icons Kingfisher Bird set makes a great gift for bird-lovers and LEGO fans who enjoy a fun and mindful building project.
This eye-catching brick-built model depicts a majestic kingfisher emerging from the water with a fish in its mouth on a display stand featuring reeds, plants and water elements. You can also place the bird’s head and claws into different positions.
Looking for a perfect set for horse lovers? Well, this might be it. But this set isn’t just a beautiful brown horse with a flaxen mane that gallops through the grass before rearing up on its hind legs. There are two other animals you can build from the same bricks: a brown bear playing next to a small waterfall or an elegant deer with majestic antlers. Build one and display it, or keep changing your mind. This set puts the choice in your hands.
Cuddly and cute, the black-and-white panda is one of the most recognizable animals in the world. Bring one into your home with this set that features a super-cute panda and its baby munching on bamboo shoots in the jungle. Or keep the black-and-white theme going with an orca and its baby swimming in the ocean, or a penguin and its chick waddling across an icy landscape.
And while we’re on the subject of pandas, if you like a little more opportunity for storytelling, why not help Autumn and Liann care for the panda and her babies at the panda sanctuary? First, you build the sanctuary and then play along as the animals slide into the water or ride on the swing. Autumn and Liann can use the ATV to deliver food or climb the ladder to the tree house, where there’s a desk and beds for the friends.
With its two long horns on top and a shorter one on the front, the Triceratops may well have the world’s most recognisable skull! With this LEGO Jurassic World set, you can create a perfect dinosaur-lover’s display. The set features a movable jaw, an amber piece in the rock base and an informative plaque. Remove the dinosaur skull from the stand to change the display at any time. Welcome to Jurassic Park!
Every time you look at this set, you’ll imagine yourself on a tropical island, thanks to these three stunning wild animals. First, a graceful pink flamingo stands on a plant-filled riverbank, or you can choose a beautiful cockatoo, which can completely rotate its head. Last but not least, there is an adorable axolotl. So, take your pink and bring a touch of the tropics into your home.
Fancy a play in the garden? Whatever time of year, you can feel the buzz of positivity as you build this bee-utiful Beekeepers’ House and Flower Garden. The house belongs to Paisley’s grandparents, who keep bees and run a shop that sells candles, honeycomb, seeds and honey. After a delightful building process, you can explore the garden, which features flowers and vegetables, and inspect the hives for honeycomb. Just make sure you remember to wear your beekeeper’s hat!
While he might not be the most intelligent creature in the world, Heihei from Disney’s Moana and Moana 2 is funny, loyal and lovable. Bring this eccentric chicken into your home with this colorful and characterful display mode. Once it’s built, Moana’s colorful chicken friend will sit on his stand in a variety of poses and whenever he gets hungry, you can toss him some corn!
Dinosaur-loving kids will love this roar-some 3-in-1 dino build. It’s designed to help toddlers’ creativity flow as they build and rebuild three pairs of colorful dinosaur friends. You can practice pronunciation as you chat about the sets of Diplodocus and T. rex, Triceratops and Stegosaurus or Pteranodon and Parasaurolophus. There are moving parts and rolling wheelbases to help expand the opportunities for play and movement, and the rebuilding process will help develop dexterity and patience. Oh, and when they’re built, you can also practice your roars, which is a crucial part of life for all true dinosaur lovers.
