Playing with the box

You spend hours choosing just the right child's gift only to have the little one toss it aside in favour of the box. Recognising this happens all too often, Kids Place have created a cardboard playhouse. Simple to assemble, once it is up, kids can decorate it with paints, felts, stickers and stencils then have hours and hours of fun playing in and around it.

You can decorate inside and out, use old wrapping paper to make curtains and Resene testpots to add a splash of colour. For something a little different apply Resene Blackboard Paint and Resene Magnetic Magic and use the playhouse walls as a blackboard or to display small posters and artwork.

The playhouses are available plain or themed, so your children can do the decorating themselves or enjoy a 'no decorating required' predecorated house.
