This Playmobil take along castle is relaly not very child-friendly. For the price, it would be best to get a proper sized castle. The take along is indeed very small, and frankly a bit boring - open, it consists of two jail-cells and a door with lifting bridge in the middle, and the only feature is a piece of the "stone" wall that falls down (and it does not fall down easily with a Playmobil catapult, the child has to work it down). The lifting door is on plastic chains which get tangled up very easily indeed, and the castle itself, put together from three pieces with Playmobil's "smart bricks" system (ie, a few plugs on the side) simply does not stand rougher play. Well, how else will a child play with a castle whose wall falls down other than by "hitting" it with a horse or knoght? The whole things falls apart incredibly easily, and even the assemblage for taking along does not hold. I do not recommend it - best to save for one of the real castles.
