Real World Performance and Day to Day Use
This SMOBY playhouse combines a 70cm platform with a slide, so it gives children a more adventurous play space than a simple floor level playhouse. The half door, two windows with louvered shutters, one porthole window, and two sliding shutters add to the pretend play appeal. The structure uses blow moulded side walls and injected facades, which helps support a strong and stable build. Parents can feel more reassured knowing it is suitable for indoor and outdoor use and intended for children aged 2 years and over. Choose this if you want a playhouse that feels more exciting and imaginative. Skip this if you want a very simple, low level play setup.
Why We Like This Product
