Kiddiewinkles presented
their range of beautiful playhouses to us and we thought they would make a perfect
addition to our existing playhouse range.
We loved the
Kiddiewinkles’ unique dual themed 2 in 1 concept and believe this takes
creativity to the next level. We love
the idea of a door on both sides of the playhouses – so
there is easy access for children to run in and out of with no pushing or
shoving to get in through one door! Plus
with intricate embroidery detail on all 4 sides of the playhouses you can turn
them around for variety. Finally, the
playhouses inspire even more creative and imaginative play as there is a different
theme on the front to the back!
All the Kiddiewinkles playhouses
are available in 2 sizes – I can even stand up inside a large playhouse so it
will be a long time before your child grows out of it!! Kiddiewinkles have kept their designs
sophisticated to retain their longevity.
If you buy a playhouse for a young child they really will get years of
fun out of them and therefore they offer exceptional value for money. A Kiddiewinkles playhouse will be a treasured
gift for years.
Their popular dual themed
‘Rose Cottage and Tea Shop’ playhouse was the first playhouse introduced to
their range. The
front and 2 sides depict an English Rose Cottage with hand embroidered and
appliqued butterflies, flower pots, roses and a truly gorgeous picket fence
adorning all 3 sides. Turn it around and the back is a quintessential village
Tea Shop complete with pink gingham appliquéd shelves, embroidered tea cups, a
tea pot and cupcakes – perfect for afternoon tea whatever the weather!
The 2 in 1 Enchanted Garden
and Fairy Woodland playhouse takes inspiration from fairies at the bottom of
the garden and is a delightful, pink playhouse based on a fairytale woodland
scene. Adorned with bluebells, daisies, birds and fairies when you turn it
around the enchantment continues with a mystical woodland scene. Striking trees
bear rosy red apples and fairies twinkle with silver wings and dresses.
The NEW 2 in 1 Gingerbread
Cottage and Sweet Shop playhouse is almost good enough to eat with its cute
appliqué and embroidered gingerbread men adorning all four sides. Turn this around
and it becomes a sweet shop with shelves full of tasty treats including traditional candy canes and swizzle
lollipops.
The 3 ‘girls’ playhouse designs offer a nice
variety with the different coloured base fabrics. So if pink isn’t your thing you can always
opt for the lilac based playhouse!
Kiddiewinkles didn’t want to leave the boys out
so have included a Fire Engine playhouse and striking Wild West Wigwam to their
range. These designs have however proved
as popular with little girls as they have done with the boys!
The Wigwam has a natural
cotton canvas background featuring a blazing sun on the front. Horse, buffalo
and bear appliqué motives are included on each side along with tufts of grass,
red and white feathers and a colourful zigzag pattern for authenticity. Perfect
for summer days in the garden or as a secret den in a bedroom or playroom, this
fun Wigwam design will bring out the cowboy and Indian in all little people!
Their authentic Fire Engine playhouse will appeal to aspiring young
firemen! Hand embroidered and appliquéd wheels complete with lights, fire
tools, ladder and a fire hose this bright red design will encourage creative
play. The roof covers half of the fire
engine to provide a den or driving area and the rear is open to enable hours of
interactive play, putting out ‘pretend’ fires!
Lastly their toy baskets have been really popular for storing allsorts
of things in. My daughter keeps all her
soft toys in her pink one. A friend has just had a baby and loved the neutral
coloured one for the nursery – perfect for storing muslin cloths, towels etc.
in it.
All Kiddiewinkles™ products
are made from 100% cotton. All the
playhouses are available in a large and small size. Co-ordinating floor quilts
are also available to compliment each playhouse.
