The Sparkle Rabbit Family
FATHER SYLVESTER SPARKLE likes everything to be spick and span. When he is at home he is always polishing and cleaning. He loves everything to be shining and bright. He is often called the quiet one of the family, but the truth is that he gets so lost in deep thought that he doesn't hear when his family asks him to do something. His favourite pastime is collecting bright shiny objects and he has quite a collection of shiny pennies.
MOTHER SYLVIA SPARKLE is a lively rabbit, always organising everyone else's activities in school and in the village. She is an expert cook and encourages all of the children to eat healthy food, with one of her specialities being carrot cake. Although she has a family to look after, she enjoys being in the spotlight. Whenever there is a party being held, she is in her element, wearing her brightest clothes and dancing to the lively music.
BROTHER GABRIEL SPARKLE is his mother's little ray of sunshine. He is always happy, bright and cheerful and a little angel. Although quiet like his father, he loves the outdoors and can run faster than the speed of light. He loves going on bike rides with his father, especially when they decide to go camping and he enjoys sitting around the camp fire looking into the flickering flames.
SISTER RENEE SPARKLE is a very charismatic rabbit. She is a model student at school and a shining example to all of her classmates. She is always writing stories and making up games for everyone to play. Her favourite pastime is dancing and she can always be found whenever loud music is being played. She loves costume jewellery and really enjoys making necklaces out of shiny objects.
BABY RUBY SPARKLE is a very cheerful young baby. She is always smiling away and giggling to herself. She enjoys watching her mother dance away and tries to copy her, much to her families bemusement. Her sister Renee made her a mobile for her cradle out of lots of shiny objects, and she loves watching it at night before she goes to sleep.

AUNTIE ESMEE SPARKLE is one of the leading fashion designers in the Sylvanian village. It started off as a hobby for her when she was growing up, borrowing her mother's sewing machine and making her own dresses. As she grew up, many of the ladies in the village kept asking her to make them dresses, so she teamed up with Mortimer Bramble to sell her creations through his boutique. Now every lady in Sylvanian has at least one Esmee dress in her wardrobe.
COUSIN SERENA SPARKLE is a perfect model for her family's creations. She is always out and about wearing her mother's latest creation, with the design finished off by one of her cousin's custom made piece of jewellery. Like her cousin Renee she is a very keen dancer, and can be found at every party on the dancefloor, dancing the night away.

COUSIN LUCILE SPARKLE is a cheerleader at Berry Grove School. She is always organising new cheers for the half time mark in school football matches. Unlike her sister Serena she is not too fussed about the latest fashions, and when she isn't in her cheerleader uniform, she is normally found in just her casual shorts and t-shirt.
The Sparkle Rabbit family were originally released in Japan in approximately 2004, consisting of a family pack of father, mother, brother and sister. The baby figure was released as an exclusive club figure in Japan. The Sparkle Rabbits did get released in the UK, each coming with a jigsaw. They had a very limited run at the time so are quite hard to find. The mother figure also got released as part of the Calico Critters line in the US, coming with a general store building. The auntie & cousin figures were classed originally as pink Cottontail rabbits, but I believe them to look very much like Sparkle Rabbits, so have added them to this family. They were approximately released at the turn of the Millenium. Renee Sparkle also got a re-release as an exclusive club figure, paired with Mikaela Renard, both wearing cheerleader outfits for the Berry Grove School. They were the last 'new' club figures released by Flair. Future figures were previously released figures.
