We could not let this Royal Wedding week go by without pointing out that newly-wedded dollies have an unparalleled selection of homes to choose from in our special dolls’ houses section at WoodenToyShop.co.uk.
We’re sure that by the end of this week, if not already, many children will have held pretend weddings for lucky dollies who will need somewhere to live after their honeymoons. And if there are items missing from the wedding list, there is plenty of furniture and lots of accessories available to give your kids’ favourite dollies a wonderful start to married life!
Children who prefer traditional houses need look no further than Pintoy’s magnificent Marlborough Dolls’ House (pictured above). This wonderful wooden house really is a perfect family home which will be inherited by generations of lucky children. Alternatively, the Plan Toys Victorian Dolls House is another award winning classic which spans three floors and (like Marlborough House) can be extended with a separate basement for even more fun and games.
If you’re after something a little more contemporary, then the Plan Toy’s Terrace Dolls’ House is a funky and modern wooden dolls’ house which has a movable terrace, exterior staircase and an open and modular design which makes play extremely easy and fulfilling. Children will especially enjoy using their imaginations to configure this house to their unique specifications.
Another cute contemporary dolls’ house is John Crane’s gorgeous Little Cottage. This colourful house also has open sides for ease of access and also comes equipped with two happy residents, furniture, fixtures and fittings as well as a lovely garden, complete with tree and bench!
Of course, part of the fun when playing with dolls’ houses is choosing and installing families and furniture. A variety of happy families are available to add a vital realistic aspect to dolls’ houses and we know full well how much children love moving parents, grandparents and brothers and sisters from room to room as and when required. Each room in your children’s dolls’ house can be kitted out with miniature dolls’ house furniture from WoodenToyShop.co.uk’s comprehensive collection. Whether you need a full set of furniture or separate bathroom, bedroom, lounge, dining room or even garden furniture, we’ve got it. Let’s not forget kitchens, nurseries, home offices and even dogs, cats, kennels and baskets!
Playing with a dolls’ house has been an integral and important part of childhood for many years and we understand that dolls’ houses were well established in nurseries by the middle of the nineteenth century. Playing with this perennial favourite offers all sorts of educational benefits such as learning about family life, household management and responsibility. Children will often spend hours engrossed in world of their own when playing with a dolls’ house and we believe that giving children the chance to exercise their imaginations with this wonderful and classic wooden toy is the best reason to bring one into your family home.
We don’t know if our future Queen had her own dolls’ house when she was a little girl, but we bet she did! Why not take some time out during this coming Royal Wedding weekend to take a look at our selection and consider treating your little angels to something special. We’ve even got castles for princesses!
