There are so many things I love about this house, first it's only $19.99! At that price I was really impressed by the quality. The sturdy cardboard of the reversible nesting boxes and thick glossy furniture/flooring look like they will hold up well with continued use.

The best part for me is that you can actually fit everything back in the boxes, making this a truly portable house that you can take anywhere. My 3 1/2-year-old son and I set up these rooms together and his favorite part was decorating with the vinyl clings. I can see this being hours of fun for kids of all ages, and young at heart adults as well.

ReplyDeleteSee me at my blog : Hydeparkminiatures.blogspot.com. I will Subscribe you if you subscribe me. Thanks :) Minilover
ReplyDeleteHey Dale,
ReplyDeleteThe scale is 1:18, you had mentioned you were interested in the giveaway if it was 1:12. I'll add that to the review, your comment reminded me that I forgot to mention it.
Welcome Minilover. Good luck with the blog. :)
It takes my mind for ever to wrap around all of the different scales. I had no idea there were so many!
ReplyDeleteSeriously Dale, I know what you mean. I'm actually working on a post that breaks down the different scales by inches and cm. Kind of a cheat sheet so when you are online shopping or see something at a store, you'll know what scale it is. I'm trying to stick with 1:12, but I have accidentally bought a variety of sizes over the years. I hope to finish that post in the next week. :D
ReplyDeleteOh, I would love to see that.
ReplyDeleteA lot of times, you can fudge here and there just a bit as many things in real life come in various sizes, but some things like furniture it does not work.
I guess you can fudge more with accessories.
