dollhouses
Tag details
Dollhouses are a classic toy which have been popular with children throughout many stages of history. From basic homemade dollhouses made from cardboard to elaborate three-storey versions with ornate furniture, it seems this essential toy never goes out of favour. A doll house is a toy house that can be personalised and decorated with furniture just like a real house. Dolls are used to represent the family members living in the house.
Dollhouses are one of the most searched for items on child-focussed blogs such as Babyology and there are many types available on the market. Many come complete with characters and furniture and others can be added to and personalised with a choice of decor. They are also a popular collector item; blogs such as Mini Modern showcase high-end designer dollhouses.
Dollhouses are made according to scale; the the most common scale in dollhouses for children is 1:18. Famous brands include Lundby and Sevi with houses made from wood, plastic and metal.
