9 Kits for an Instant Kids’ Clubhouse
Hello, my friend, hello again; today we come together to talk about 9 Kits for an Instant Kids’ Clubhouse and hope the blog can help you.
It’s pretty much every kid’s dream to have a secret hideout right in the backyard. Building even a simple treehouse, however, takes design and construction skills, time, and more than a few splinters. If you don’t think you’ve got what it takes to build something from scratch, you can still give the little ones their very own playhouse. As long as you’re pretty good at reading instructions—just draw on your previous IKEA furniture assembly experiences—these kits give you everything you need to construct an awesome place to play.
Whimsical Raised Cottage
This cheerful, cockeyed little house is straight out of a Dr. Seuss book, but it’s packed with as much play potential as charm. The slide will keep kids busy for hours, and tiny skylights on the roof bathe the interior in light. Available at Wayfair; $599.99.
Hobbit Hole
Here’s a playhouse that’s truly the perfect size for little ones. Kids will love the snug and secret feeling of this “Lord of the Rings”-inspired playhouse, and parents will love how easy it is to assemble. The design offers a lot of versatility too—once the kids outgrow it, the structure can morph into a little storage shed or even a chicken coop. Available at Etsy; $2,495.

Available on Amazon; $1,434.
