Pleased

I am very pleased with the figures. They are the perfect size for the sand box I use. My clients have used them in a variety of ways and find that they can stand up in sand, on hard floor and on carpet.

I was disappointed with the color of the skin tones and the intricoes of the facial details. However, I realize they are mass produced. I have painted them to improve their diversity. Also, they don't sand on their own very well and fall down easily.

As an EMDR and Sand Tray therapist, I cannot ever have enough figures that represent diversity to help clients feel supported and valued as they are. This is a great set of figurines that depict not only several races, but ages and genders as well. I am certain it will get a lot of use.

The Caucasian people look greyish green and sick. I have already had a couple children comment on it and they also said that most of the people look angry or scary. It's also kind of irritating that they don't bend so that they can be put in a sitting position. I would like to return these people.

These figures are fantastic. They are great value, good quality and work very well in sand trays. The Caucasian family are grey in colour which was odd because I ordered other figures from the professionals set and diverse abilities set, and the Caucasian figures are not grey in those sets. I am still very pleased with them. I would highly recommend.

Purchased these to add to my sand tray therapy collection. Shipping was timely and product was received as described. I was happy to purchase the 32 piece set but it did not include the Native American family so I purchased that separately. The pieces are sturdy and well made and should hold up well to use and play.

by Oscar Tagle

The Pretend Play Multicultural Families set has been a truly valuable addition to my sandtray collection. With 32 diverse and thoughtfully designed figures, this set allows clients to see themselves and their families represented—something that is incredibly important in therapeutic work. Clients naturally gravitate to the pieces to express relationships, roles, connection, and even conflict. The range of ages, skin tones, and family structures encourages inclusive storytelling and helps build a safe, welcoming space. Durable, well-sized, and versatile—this set supports deeper understanding and empowers clients to tell their own stories with authenticity.
