    This is my first SV purchase for my daughter whose 8 and showing an interest when seeing adverts and looking in shops.
    Can anyone give me any tips, good places to look ? What am I likely to need to buy to go with the bluebell cottage ?
    Many thanks!

    Hi

    I've two nieces who play at my house most weekends (4 and 8) I've been building my Sylvanian collection for 3 years. I started out with a house to.

    I guess it's up to you ( and I don't know how big the BB cottage is) but Sylvanians are expensive so I would buy her a family of animals (boots had some for £10 on web instead of £15) and then look on eBay for furniture.

    A nice addition at a later stage might be a car or a bus.

    My daughter is 4 and has asked for sylvanians, I have gone a bit mad as she hasn't asked for anything else and with all the deals around its been hard to resist. Iv got her about 5 families, 3 houses, a cafe, car, ice cream van and some furniture and village sets. This isn't all from me though as I buy presents and family just collect them from me but I know she will play with it constantly so I guess it just depends on how focused she is going to be on it.
