Little People are so much fun for "little people" to play with.  Toddlers love the bright colors and chunky pieces that they can grasp easily.  The people are big enough that they don't pose a choking hazard, but small enough to fit nicely into the hands of a child.

Children are fascinated by yellow school buses!  I think that's why the Little People's School Bus is so popular and is such a successful selling toy.  Toddlers enjoy being able to pretend that they're sending the Little People off to school.  The Little People have a hole at the bottom that snaps right into a peg inside the school bus.  This way the Little People are securely placed into the bus, without rolling around.  There are enough seats for several Little People to fit into, and even a seat for the bus driver. 

The bus is bright yellow, of course, and has a door that opens for the Little People to go through.  It also has a stop sign on the side of the bus that flips out, just like on a real bus!  The big, chunky design, allows little children to roll it easily on the floor.  And it's made very durable, so when the bus is "crashed" into something, it doesn't phase it a bit.  The Little People inside the bus remain in place too.

Both of my boys had this toy when they were young, and it's one that I have given as a gift several times.  You can't go wrong with any of the Little People play-sets.  They are designed with Toddler's in mind, and all the colorful, fun accessories help open up a child's imagination.

I highly recommend any of the Little People sets, but the bus especially.  It's fun for the kids to be able to drive it around, roll it on the floor, and keeps their little minds busy.

I remember this toy! This would be a great toy for my toddler. I sometimes feel like a kid again when my little man and I play with his toys. ;-) ~Krista Lynn

I think I was still playing with this thing in the lower levels of grade school. My memory doesn't go back beyond 1st grade because I have somehow managed to associate everything with my school years. I remember trying to put my Weeble Wobbles in the bus. Do you remember them? Hmm...let's go to amazon.com and see if we can find some Weeble Wobbles. ~Gigi
