Castle toy for boys and girls

[Pbl427]

I have B/G twins that are turning 5. DS wants a castle with knights and DD wants a castle with princesses. They are willing to play together. Any suggestions for a castle toy with knights and princesses that will accommodate both interests? The ones I find seem to lean one way or the other.

TIA!!

What about something like this (http://www.amazon.com/Melissa-Doug-Deluxe-Folding-Medieval/dp/B000NV9FR0/ref=sr_1_1?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1414000870&sr=1-1&keywords=castle) with Schleich knights and princesses or TOOBs of figures or something like that?

What about Melissa and Doug's midevil folding castle in tan and the princess and knight dolls?

You buy the dolls separately, so you can buy sets that you like. It is listed for younger kids, but my 9 year old still plays with it. She uses the M&D princess set, calico critters, and other small figures in her play.

I was also going to recommend the M&D castle. We have that one, and then I have a few of the imaginext castle toys to go with it.

My daughter fell in love with this one at a toy store and I got it for her for Christmas when she was 4 or 5. it was set up with the schleich (sp?) princesses and knights and she used it with those and others.

The M and D one posted seems great though and better for 2 person play but thought I'd post this if you wanted a cheaper option. It is a super sturdy kind of cardboard (almost like wood)

We have the folding Melissa and Doug version too. The "boy" color is very neutral. We use Schleich knights with it, and I know there is a king and queen in the mix :)

We have a large colletion of the Playmobil knights and castles and they have been loved for 4+ years now. We bought the first castle when Ds1 was about 4yo. We have the smaller folding version, a little like this one.
