My Mermaid Lagoon – Marina’s Lagoon Review

amomentwithfranca · 4 September 2017 · 12 Comments

We received a lovely new toy to review. It is My Mermaid Lagoon from Interplay UK. We have revipewed other products from them before which were great so we were looking forward to reviewing this set too.

This lovely mermaid playset is fantastic for your kids to create a magical mermaid world where Mermaids and their animal friends love to live.

I had both my girls ready to open the box. They took turns this time to help me. It is funny how used to doing this they are now! They are my little models, LOL!

Your little ones can mould, sculpt and play with the glittery magic sand and use corals, shells and other accessories to create an enchanting ‘under-the-sea’ scene in a beautiful bottle with a pretty shell-shaped stopper.

CONTENTS

It contains everything you need to create a charming magical mermaid world where Marina the Mermaid and her dolphin friend can live. This is what is included:

  • 1 x Display Bottle Base
  • 1 x Display Bottle Lid
  • 1 x Display Bottle Stopper
  • 1 x Marina Mermaid Figure
  • 1 x Mermaid Shell
  • 1 x Dolphin Figure & Stand
  • 1 x Trident
  • 4 x Sand Moulds (Shell, & Starfish Shapes)
  • 4 x Corals
  • 1 x Bag of Magic Sand
  • 1 x Colour Activity Guide

As mentioned before, our mermaid was Marina who comes with her lovely dolphin. Two other kits are also available in the My Mermaid Lagoon range. You can choose from Coral who comes with a seahorse and Pearl who comes with a narwhal. So that’s 3 My Mermaid Lagoon playsets to collect.

SETTING UP THE MERMAID LAGOON

This playset is very easy to set up. The manual comes with step by step instructions which are pretty clear so it won’t take you long to do it. Bella was really good at this, and she knew in advance what to do. Sienna was observing carefully at the start. But as soon as it was set up she was ready to play.

It comes with magic sand which reminds me of Kinetic Sand. Bella opened the bag and spread it out over the base of the Lagoon.

It comes with shells which the girls used to mould shapes in the sand. You have a star and shells of different sizes. It looks really nice when you have the sand moulded. The trident is also great to sculpt shapes and swirls.

Marina’s home is the super cute clamshell which you could close to keep the mermaid and the dolphin inside. This is great because yours kids will be able to take their mermaid anywhere, carried safe and snug in her clamshell home that fits perfectly into a pocket. This is something that Sienna already did. She loves putting the clamshell in her pocket. I can see this will be taken everywhere.

The girls then placed the coral, seaweed shells and starfish in the sand. They decorated it nicely around the bottle. Then finally, they placed Marina in the clamshell with her trident.

The last part was to place the lid on the bottle and the shell stopper in the top. It looks so cool! Really, if I was a little girl again I would definitely love having a Mermaid Lagoon in my bedroom.

PRICE AND WHERE TO BUY

The Mermaid Lagoon has an RRP of £16.99 which is a reasonable price as it looks durable and of good quality. You can buy it from most toy retailers. Please see below Amazon details:

This toy is for kids aged 4 years and over. It is not suitable for children under 36 months due to small parts that may represent a choking hazard.

OUR THOUGHTS 

My girls really like this playset! It looks really good. They have moved it to their bedroom now, on their window so they can see and play with it all the time. It is of a good quality and we love all the details. They like the idea of being able to transport the mermaid inside her clamshell. It is very cute!

What do you think of the Mermaid Lagoon? Would you get one for your kids? 

*Disclosure: We were sent this playset for the purpose of this review. However, all thoughts and opinions are my own. Contains affiliate links.

Thanks for stopping by,

Love you all ❤️

      Lol I know! This was actually a small toy so it was okay to fit in their bedroom! But the solution is to do a declutter often so we always have toys that are good for their age. We love this mermaid! 🙂 x
