Okay, I have seen playhouses come and go, but this is by far the best one I've ever seen!Kids love to role play and this playhouse has limitless opportunities for interactive role-playing! Each wall of this playhouse has a different theme: One side is a schoolhouse/firehouse wall (they give you decals to make it either or), one side is a gas station complete with gas pumper and crawl through tire tunnel, one side is a sports wall which comes with a basketball hoop, soccer net, 4 targets and a sports ball (what a deal!) and the last wall is a grocery store wall with a pretend ATM/bank, too! My child loves to pretend to play school one minute and then the next thing you know he is over on the other side of the playhouse pretending that he is out for recess at the sports wall. This playhouse is seriously loaded with features! I couldn't find a better value for my money! You would be depriving your child of their imagination if you didn't get this playhouse! Plus the inside is loaded with features as well. There isn't enough room for me to go on about all of the wonderful features!

We bought this for our 2 year old son as a Christmas Gift. We can't wait to see the look on his face in a few days. It's very solid construction and should stand up to years of use. The walls have different shapes/objects molded into them, some of it quite detailed, but it's all the same color. So my wife and I purchased some plastic paints at a local craft store and painted some of the objects on the walls to add more detail and realism. It was cheap and and easy, and the results speak for themselves. We painted the fruit on the store wall, along with the ATM etc. On the inside my wife painted the globe, the books, the tools hanging on the wall, along with the bank safe and the tire. It looks very cool now. This house doesn't have any sound effects or lighting, so I purchased a wireless doorbell and battery operated light at Home Depot. The total cost for the paints and electronincs was $25 and was easy to do. Rather than spending the extra $100 for more detail and electronics, this was a very cost effective and fun way to make the house even better. I think my son is going to love it. I'll post pictures when I get time.

I have a 5yr old son, 3yr old daughter and 1yr old twins. They all LOVE this playhouse. It is not too girly because of the sports stuff. It is not to boyish because it is a playhouse. The babies love to crawl in and out the openings. It is fun for all 4 kids of all ages. This is a great way to go if you have boys and girls.

After doind lots of research and reading reviews of the playhouses out there I decided on this one because of all of the play possibilities. Right now my 2 year old son loves to go in and out the door and through the tunnel and he really enjoys the sports court. This house also provides so many ways for him to use his imagination as he gets older. I can see him playing in this playhouse for years and since the house is very spacious inside he has lots of room to grow. Three or four children can easily fit (or a child, two adults and a dog). This playhouse was priced very well, in the mid-range of playhouses with a lot more features than most. I was surprised at the value and since it is a little tikes toy I know it will last. It is very sturdy and I put it together by myself in about 45 minutes, I am sure it would take less time without the help of an very excited two-year-old. You do need an electric drill and the basketball hoop was very hard to get into the slots but with some soap and water went in with a hard push.I would recomend this playhouse to anyone who likes to get a lot of value for their money.

My MIL just bought this for our noq 21 month old sons two months ago, its terific! They love it and its by far the best house out there. WE use it every day and it holds up to much abuse, but we really bought it because it wasnt pink and frilly, a must with two BOYS

Our sons are still a little young to climb all over our very large wooden swing set, and we wanted more for them to play with, this house is just soo awsome. Its a little large, so I dont suggest you purchasing it for indoor use (especially since every side had an activity so it wouldnt be as fun against a wall). It can fit both my boys in it and the weather doesnt do any damage... we plan on covering it with a tarp in the winter though... before our sons go inside we wipe it down with dissinfected wipes and get all the little bugs out for them, no biggy...

Now for all the extras!!!

SPORTS SIDE->
* Basket ball hoop, now we dont have to buy a little one that will just tip over anyway (we have one inside) and our sons love to play with it (they are only in the 32nd percentile) so its a bit tough to make a basket on the highest setting, it can adjust to the top of the house, or to right abouve the soccer net, great for toddlers or older children!!!
* The soccer net also doubles as a little window and our sons really love to peek in and out of it... its very durable and there is no ripping in it *yet*... but they like it when my husband shows them to kick the ball inside, and it keeps the air flow throughout the toy house nice and fresh...
* The little number game is cute, my sons dont understand it yet, but for older family and friends its a big hit

SUPERMARKET->
* A little ATM machine, so adorable and my sons cant get enough of it... although the older kids have more imaginative play with that part of the house
* The little window alot of the younger toddlers enjoy, its one of their favorite parts of the house, all little kids love opening and closing things, yet again older kids like to make this a McDonalds drive in window or something... great fun
* The big window makes it easy to see how the boys are doing inside, and it also keeps it nice and fresh, not too moldy and stuffy like some of the other houses, we like the big window

GAS STATION->
* The tunnel is a big hit wiht the toddlers, they like to peek through it, its my sons favorite way to get in! The older kids like to chase through it and try to "fly" through...
* The little pump is great for kettrikes and cozy coupes, my sons and the other toddlers like putting it into the cars gas tank, they think thats cute, but the older kids sometimes pretend its a hose or something, very cute imaginations
* The little telephone is a big hit with everyone, they love pretending with it and I usually find it everywhere but the base, but hey thats no biggy
* YEt again more ventalation with the window... I think thats why this house doesnt get too much mold or little bugs... theres just no really dark and damp spaces!

SCHOOL HOUSE->
* Theres not too much to this side of the house, and it doesnt really look like a school, but the younger kids like slaming the door
* The older kids make it a barn and like to pretend its a stable door, very very imaginative
* EVEN MORE VENTALATION AND ANOTHER SPOT TO SEE EVERYONE, TWO BIG WINDOWS AND A BARN-DOOR...

This house is perfect for toddlers, and bigger kids (up to about 10-11ish) there are just endless possibilities for this house and everyone enjoys it... I always know theres something for EVERY one to have fun with outside... the perfect playhouse out there

We wanted something that would provoke more imagination than just a house for my son's 2nd birthday. This seemed perfect, as it is more "boy" with the activity sides for the gas station & sports stuff. At the local Toys R Us, they had it and 1 "house" set up, and my son never even noticed the other one. My husband set it up himself in about 30 minutes (with "help" from my son), but he did use the electric screwdriver.

My son LOVES it. He plays in it every day, and he even uses the soccer net for playing golf. Great gift idea.

We have been looking around for a playhouse for our 2 1/2 year old son and were about to buy the Naturally Playful Cottage by Step 2 until we saw this one. This playhouse has so many more features, especially for little boys, and was considerably cheaper. I am so glad we got this one. This is the first one I've seen that gives more options for boys instead of just playing "house." There is the schoolhouse/firehouse, gas station, grocery store, and sports walls. The first thing my son did when we set it up was gas up his jeep. I can see him playing with this one a lot longer that others because of all the options. It was fairly easy to put together but you do need 2 people to secure the roof. For the money, this is definitely the best value out there.

My son really enjoys his new playhouse. He is only two years old, so he has not yet mastered the basketball hoop. I would recommend this product to other parents because of its durability. My son crawls in and out the windows and the structure does not even budge. He also likes the gas pump and the desk inside. I do wish, however, that the impressions on the inside were a bit more colorful.

I will try to be short and to the point. This playhouse is well worth the money. The last thing our Daughter says before going to bed is "Go to my playhouse when the sun comes up?"!!! She LOVES it!!

It is big enough for several children to play together (even parents!!) My nephews that are 6 and 10 loved playing with the basketball goal and soccer net. We have had it for several weeks and we have already decided this is the best money we have spent in a while! I love all of the "pretend play" on every side they didn't waste any space on this playhouse! The Bank with ATM, market, gas station and school.
Lots of thought went in to this design......must have been designed by parents!!

Ok, I first bought this "town" playhouse. I was not happy with what I recieved for the amount of money I spent. There are no tables! ONLY a corner shelf type table (worthless). For the money there are no sounds, the inside is non-colorful, pointless, it is very dark inside, no chairs came with it, and no shelves. I was not happy!

SO I exchanged this for the "Naturally Playful Cottage". ON the website there is only a 30.00 dollar differance, in the store it cost 349.99. I didn't care. If I'm going to spend that much money I'm going to get something I want.

The Naturally Playful Cottage is so much better! You get two tables!!! 1 table outside with 2 bench seats, and the inside table you can put two folding chairs in it. My son puts his microwave on the inside table, and sits on the oustide table, gives him more room.. This playhouse has lots of shelves!!! The fireplace has 1 long shelf... The other house didn't have any! This playhouse has a sink, stove, sounding doorbell that doesn't take batteries and a phone with sounds!!! the roof is made to be taller, that lets air and light into it, much better! This is much cuter overall, and the inside is like 5 star comparied to the "town" playhouse, which has nothing...

I get in here and play with my son, plenty of room !!!

I'm not lying, you must buy this Naturally Playful Cottage, I hope this was helpful, to save other parents from making the mistake I made and buying, setting up and breaking down and returning/ exchanging for something worth the money!!!
