Little Tikes Natural Playhouse: How safe is it?

Little Tikes is a market leader around the world in outdoor toys, vehicles and houses for children.  As for the playhouse’s suitability for its designed audience of pre-school children from 2 years and up, everything about this playhouse has been thought of with little fingers and a pre-school curiosity in mind.

Below we focus on any areas of the playhouse that may cause concern for the parental eye.

Windows and door: Due to the simplistic design of the playhouse, the only area of concern with safety for parents may be the windows and doors. No doubt opening and closing the windows and doors over and over again to enter and exit the house as well as seeing who is outside, will keep small children entertained for hours, The great thing about the windows and doors is that they are so lightweight and solid, with a small gap in the centre of the windows to stop little fingers becoming trapped. From a parental point of view there is nothing to cause any concern for safety for a small child.

Our overall impression is that the classic chunky build will provide a safe environment for your child to have hours of fun. Due to its compact size and large windows, you are able to keep an eye on your child at all times ensuring that no mischief is taking place. With no sharp edges and lightweight windows, doors and fixtures to protect little fingers from harm, this is the perfect playhouse for your preschool age child and beyond.

Little Tikes Natural Playhouse: How easy to build?

By assembling the four walls and then adding the roof, shutters and doors, the building process couldn’t be easier. Its lightweight parts mean that it can be built single handed by just one adult (accompanied by a child spectator of course!).

Little Tikes Natural Playhouse: What is the overall quality like?
