The LEGO Group is launching Gabby’s Dollhouse in brick form for the first time and kids can have a cat-tastic summer with four new building sets!
The collection features iconic moments, characters, and scenes from the DreamWorks Animation preschool series, including Gabby, her kitty cat friends, her dollhouse, and more.
The series — currently available to watch on Netflix — encourages a “growth mindset,” modeling flexible thinking, confidence, and celebrating mistakes, and each LEGO set offers kids a unique role-playing opportunity that encourages imaginative play and creative problem-solving. Think: “I haven’t figured that out YET,” or “I failed fantastically!”
For example, each of the eight rooms in Gabby’s Dollhouse tells a story, where there is a specific skill or challenge for kids to tackle. The 498-piece buildable dollhouse ($79.99) comes with a Gabby mini-doll figure; LEGO minifgures of Pandy Paws, MerCat, and Cakey; and also features a sliding cat-a-vator.
All of the sets are suitable for kids ages 4 and up and are tailored to fit the skills of new builders. With quick-start large pieces, step-by-step specialized instructions, and pre-decorated pieces, preschoolers with little building experience can easily distinguish between pieces to start their LEGO adventures with Gabby and friends.

Gabby and MerCat’s Ship and Spa combines beauty and boating all in one. Kids can take Gabby on a boat ride to the spa, where MerCat is ready to give her a makeover.

Finally, the Kitty Fairy’s Garden Party set ($34.99) is packed with activities. In the treehouse and garden, kids can imagine drinking tea and watering flowers. Plus, there is a slide, a swing, and a merry-go-round for friends. Accessories in this 130-piece set include apples, a watering can, a teapot, cups, and butterflies.
These sets are now available for preorder on lego.com and will be available at select retailers beginning on Aug. 1.
