This was a christmas present for my 7-year old daughter, who has a homemade dolls thatched cottage. They are a modern-dressed family whose arms and legs can be manipulated so that they can sit/lie in different positions around the dolls house. I chose this set of dolls as they are not made of wood and their clothes can be removed. The only disappointment my daughter had, was that the children in the family are both girls, where are the boys, she asked! This toy is pricey, but then they are handmade dolls.
