I think the Lego Girl products are unfairly maligned. They're not Technics or MindStorms, but from what I can tell they have similar amounts of building as similar Lego sets for that age group.

And my 7 year old daughter, who loves pink but also has a punch bag, loves them.

Looking at a usual Lego Girl package it reminds me far more of Playmobil sets than Lego.

For example, there is no 25-step manual like there is for the cool spaceships, police stations, or castles that my 7-year old son gets to work through...

My 5-year old daughter loves pink as well and might love Lego Girl, but I prefer getting her "normal legos" to help her come up with her own creations, even if she then does make little wedding ceremonies and what have you. :)

My daughter has a mix, though. So we will build the Lego Friends Riding Stables,and then build a car and trailer to drive the horses around.

Haha, touché - I'm impressed and will reconsider the Lego Girl "thing". :)
