LEGO 1979 / Homemaker Sets

LEGO Homemaker was a theme introduced in 1971 designed to appeal primarily to girls and centered on domestic and suburban life-based settings. The larger of the Homemaker sets could be assembled to build complete room settings of a house, including a kitchen, living room, bathroom and bedrooms while smaller sets could build models of other household fixtures. The sets are known for using Homemaker figures built using standard LEGO bricks.

1979 LEGO Sets

In 1979, LEGO continued to diversify its product range with the introduction of Fabuland, a new theme aimed at younger children. Fabuland bridged the gap between DUPLO and standard LEGO System sets, featuring a mix of larger, easy-to-handle parts alongside traditional LEGO bricks. The theme was distinguished by its anthropomorphic animal characters, each with unique personalities, encouraging storytelling and imaginative play. Fabuland remained in production until 1989, making it one of LEGO’s longest-running themes at the time.
