The Country Cottage Playhouse: A Breakthrough Little Tikes
Article by Larry McMann
Playhouses have been used by kids to spend their leisure times with even in the past. Moms and dads built their kids? playhouses using wood and other materials that they can find around. Not minding what materials their playhouses were made of, children enjoyed playing with them as much as the modern child enjoys his.
The faster way of life of the modern man then gave toy manufacturers the chance for better business. Knowing that some parents do not have the luxury of time to build their children?s playhouses from scratch, they started making playhouses out of plastic. The Little Tikes Company has its own version of the playhouse ? The Country Cottage Playhouse.
Easily assembled with the use of the common screwdriver and a hammer, the Country Cottage Playhouse is a user-friendly recourse for the modern parent. In it are built-in toys and other features designed to enrich the child?s imaginative mind. The pretend sink with a swivel faucet will make the kids feel like they are using the real sink at home.
The push button pay phone will also enhance their hand motor skills and the stove top with click knobs will provide a more realistic feel of cooking. There is not a kid who will not love these and the ?country life? feel that they do not experience in their cities is a sure plus to the package!
The playhouse has a small-scale design but it has a full height door and four fully operational windows making it ideal for use outdoors. If assembled in the backyard, the playhouse allows children to make improvements by adding gardens or porches, making them feel realistic even more.
The Country Cottage Playhouse can also be used indoors, though it usually needs a larger playroom. Three standing kids and two small chairs can fit inside the playhouse, making it a very good center of the playground for day care kids.
