LEGO Friends Panda Sanctuary Animal Care Building Toy 42648 | 7+

Heartwarming animal care and storytelling

Bring a miniature world of care to life with LEGO Friends Panda Sanctuary Animal Care (42648). This multi-level tree-house sanctuary invites kids 7 and up to build, nurture, and imagine as they help a panda family thrive near a bamboo grove and gentle water features. Autumn and Liann minidolls join the panda family, inviting friendship-filled adventures and gentle conservation themes without instructions to real-world outcomes.

What kids can craft and explore spans a mix of building, role-play, and problem-solving. The set includes a tree house with cozy details such as beds and a desk, plus panda care gear that mirrors caring routines in a kid-friendly way. The three panda figures bring warmth and whimsy to every scene, and the ATV can deliver bamboo treats for playful storytelling sessions.

Two engaging play lanes

• Imaginative care moments: use the scale, grooming tools, bamboo treats, and cleaning tools to create believable daily routines for the panda family.
