About LEGO Panda Sanctuary Animal Care

At 243 pieces, this Friends set builds a detailed panda sanctuary with tree house and vehicle. The main model measures over 15 cm high, 17 cm wide and 16 cm deep, creating a substantial play environment for animal care adventures.

The set centres around a buildable tree house that serves as the panda sanctuary headquarters, complete with an ATV for transporting food and supplies. Three panda figures represent a family unit with one adult and two babies, providing the focus for nurturing play scenarios.

Characters and Storytelling

Two minidolls, Autumn and Liann, take on the roles of sanctuary caretakers. The set includes extensive accessories to support animal care storylines: a scale for health checks, grooming brush, cleaning shovel, plus feeding supplies including bamboo and an apple. Additional equipment features a solar panel, lantern, phone and pen for realistic sanctuary operations.

Play Features

The sanctuary setup encourages role-playing around animal welfare and environmental care. The ATV adds mobility to the play experience, while the tree house design integrates natural elements with functional spaces. Suitable for builders aged 7 and up, the set combines construction challenges with open-ended storytelling opportunities focused on friendship and animal care themes.
