COLOR YOUR OWN CARDBOARD COTTAGE DOLL HOUSE


This product is environmentally friendly. Click icon for more information. Not your average cardboard box, this darling, eco-friendly cottage is sure to get little imaginations thinking from the ground up. This doll house for kids encourages creativity and is great for individual or group play (perfect for birthday parties!) The cottage is made from sturdy double-walled corrugated board (45% post-consumer recycled materials), which makes it durable and 100% recyclable. Easy to assemble, it comes with its own set of eight non-toxic washable watercolor paints and works equally well with other watercolors, markers or crayons. It's like a giant coloring book!

Comments about COLOR YOUR OWN CARDBOARD COTTAGE DOLL HOUSE:

Not very eco.

White cardboard is bleached and bleaching white paper is the third biggest polluter on the planet.

Comments about COLOR YOUR OWN CARDBOARD COTTAGE DOLL HOUSE:

It's a cute 3D coloring/decorating project. Unfortunately, I did not pay any attention to the dimensions when ordering, and was expecting something akin to a 'house' that I bought for my children about 5 years ago; same price range. Two (5 & under) children could get inside it!

However, I would get this again as a gift.

My girls (ages 3 and 7) worked together to color this little house and now they use it for a house for their Barbies. It is so cute and was a nice little project that they could work on together.

a Green gift, includes imagination!
By auntie colVerified Buyer from rhode island on 12/31/2009
Gift:
Yes
Pros:
Cute Design, Easy To Assemble, Fun
Best Uses:
Creative Development, Imaginative Play, Young Children

Comments about COLOR YOUR OWN CARDBOARD COTTAGE DOLL HOUSE:

Gift

Recyclable and uses imagination, affordable.

Size of item should have been included underneath picture, i thought this was large enough for the child to play "in" as my daughter had the exact item but she fit in it. I am aware that the size was in the description but not emphasized enough.

PS ...get the big one too so she can have it for her birthday in MAY!!

Comments about COLOR YOUR OWN CARDBOARD COTTAGE DOLL HOUSE:

This doll house is adorable. It assembled in less than a minute. We clipped the bottom of the house rather than inserting the tabs so that it can open easily to be colored. There are drawings inside and out, which thrilled our 6 year old, who already has her favorite stuffed animal living in it. To note, as many have... it is a "dollhouse" as it clearly states and not a "playhouse" as is available as well--surprising how many people didn't check the name, description, or dimensions. It is what it is--creative and simple--and delightful.

Comments about COLOR YOUR OWN CARDBOARD COTTAGE DOLL HOUSE:

I highly recommend this as a gift for a child from the age of 4 and up. When gave it as a gift the little girl wanted to do it immediately, her only comment was that she wished she could get in herself. I loved how all the paints came with it and even with the comment by the girl, she REALLY loved it.
