Aren't they adorable? This rustic family makes me feel cozy inside. I want to curl up in front of an open log fire with a cup of cocoa now!
In the UK, these figures are known as the Dales, whilst in the US, they are called the Lambrooks. Other than the difference names, both versions are the same.
This family was also released in Japan with traditional flat hands.
The US has the sit and crawl twins with open mouths, whilst the UK has crawling and sleeping babies with open mouths. In Japan, the twin babies are the same, and the standing baby is in a lighter green outfit.
Sylvanian pun! Intentional or not, you sometimes find them in the UK names. Here I am proud to spot Baby Girl Emma Dale, which is referring to the long-established UK soap opera Emmerdale. It's quite fitting considering it's a soap about farms!

Dale Biographies
UK Biographies
Ewan Dale is in charge of the Sylvanian orchards, keeping the grass short and the place tidy. He is very proud of his Victoria plums and crisp, crunchy Cox's pippins but has no time at all for most of the modern varieties.
Barbara Dale is the real family expert on fruit trees of every kind. Her busiest times are late autumn and early spring, when she is in the orchard, pruning and re-shaping all the fruit trees and checking for any problems, very late into the evening.
Winton Dale loves helping his mother and father in the orchard. His favourite job is looking after the bonfire but before he can do this, he has to rake up all the fallen leaves and twigs which he finds a bit bothering and doesn't particularly enjoy. However, he is always very thorough, as he knows that the more he collects, the bigger the bonfire will be!
Iona Dale has been given the very important job of collecting and sorting all the different types of fruit. She much prefers this part-time job than going to school, because she can chew to her heart's content without any teacher telling her that it is not allowed!
