Little Dutch Dolls House Review

Construction and Design

We were VERY impressed with the quality of this dolls house. Everything came nicely packaged and the instructions were very clear and consequently easy to follow. Everything fitted together absolutely perfectly which is not always the case with wooden toys that you have to build.

  • Material and Durability

    This dollhouse is built from high-quality wood, ensuring it can withstand years of playtime. The sturdy construction is ideal for younger children who might be a bit rough with their toys.

  • Aesthetics

    The Little Dutch house features a delightful pink and white colour scheme with a classic feel to it. The painted details and illustrated interiors on the walls add a touch of whimsy, creating a visually appealing atmosphere for imaginative play.|

Play Value and Functionality

Included Furniture and Accessories

The dolls house comes fully furnished which consequently eliminates the need for additional purchases right away. The furniture set includes pieces for a living room (sofa, coffee table, plant), kitchen (sink/hob unit, table & chairs), bedroom (double bed, bedside table), as well as the bathroom (sink, bathtub). It even includes two peg dolls to get the stories started and therefore the imagination flowing! You can add more furniture to it if you wish however, this is not essential.

Room for Creativity

The included furniture provides a great starting point and the simple design therefore encourages open-ended play. Kids can use their own toys and figures alongside the included pieces if they wish, allowing them to personalise their dollhouse world. In addition, we love the open top area within the roof which really adds to a child’s imagination!

Things to Consider

Size and Scalability


This dollhouse is on the smaller side, with four rooms spread across two floors. While this is ideal for limited spaces, some might find it restrictive, especially for children who have a lot of dolls or like to play with elaborate storylines. There are no expansion packs available for this particular dollhouse.

Age Range

The recommended age for this dollhouse is typically 3 years and up. The simplicity of the design and the small furniture pieces might not be the best fit for older children who crave more intricate details and larger dollhouse features.

Conclusion

The Little Dutch Wooden Dolls House is a well-made and practical option for toddlers and preschoolers alike. Its charming design, sturdy build, and included furniture make it a great value. It is incredibly well built! However, if you’re looking for a feature-rich dolls house with a larger footprint or one that caters to older children’s desire for more elaborate play, you might want to consider other options.

Pros

  • Exceptional quality
  • Offers large open ended play opportunities
  • Beautiful design

Cons

  • May be a little small for some children

We awarded the Little Dutch Dolls House a remarkable 10 out of 10 stars. The quality of this dolls house is better than we have ever seen before. We believe that this dolls house would make the perfect heirloom for generations to come due to it’s incredible build quality and play value.
