    Different Types of Playhouses

    Wooden Playhouse

    Wooden playhouses are sturdy and long-lasting. They can be customised with paint and non-toxic finishes, though regular maintenance is required to ensure they remain weather-resistant. Popular styles include Victorian, cottage, gingerbread, cabin, schoolhouse, firehouse, hut, garage, and loft designs.

    Plastic Playhouse

    Plastic playhouses are lightweight, easy to assemble and disassemble, and require little maintenance. Although weather-resistant, they are not as durable as wooden options. Modular designs provide flexibility and multifunctional play opportunities.

    Metal Playhouse

    Metal playhouses are highly weather-resistant and durable, though less common due to their harder surfaces. While strong, they may not offer the same level of imaginative play as wooden or plastic options.

     

    What to Look for When Buying a Playhouse

    playhousesSize and Space

    Measure the available space in your garden, making sure there’s at least 1ft around the playhouse for maintenance. Ensure space for doors, verandas, or additional features such as a slide. Opt for larger sizes that can accommodate both toddlers and older children as they grow.

    Materials

    Wood provides sturdy construction and can be customised, but requires regular maintenance. Plastic is lightweight, easy to assemble, and low maintenance, though less durable. Metal is durable and weather-resistant but may not be ideal for younger children due to its harder surfaces.

    Roof Types

    An apex roof offers more headroom and suits two-storey designs, while a Dutch barn roof provides extra height throughout, ideal for loft spaces or larger playhouses.

    Playhouse Safety Features

    Look for shatterproof windows, safety hinges, rounded edges, and smooth surfaces to prevent injuries. Ensure the playhouse meets UK safety standards with non-toxic finishes and sturdy construction.

    Windows and Doors

    Ensure there are enough windows for ventilation and light. Consider opening windows for airflow, and check that doors have magnetic latches to prevent accidental locking.

     

    One Level or Two?

    Single-Storey Playhouse

    Single-storey playhouses are ideal for toddlers and younger children, offering easy access without the need for stairs or ladders. Their sftraightforward design ensures safe, independent play and makes them perfect for smaller gardens.

    Two-Storey Playhouse

    Double-storey playhouses provide additional space, headroom, and better ventilation, making them suitable for older children. These models often include a ladder with safety railings and may feature a balcony or loft for extra play opportunities.

    Tower Playhouse

    Tower playhouses are elevated, accessed by a ladder, and create an exciting vantage point. The space underneath can be used for storage or play, and some models come with a slide for added outdoor enjoyment.

     

    Design Features and Add-Ons

    playhousesVerandas and Balconies

    Verandas and balconies provide additional outdoor play space while adding charm to the playhouse. A veranda offers a sheltered area for play, while balconies in multi-storey designs give children a fun, elevated view. Both features add character and practicality to the structure.

    Slides, Ladders, and Climbing Walls

    Incorporating play equipment like slides, ladders, or climbing walls adds a physical element to the playhouse, making it more engaging. These features work well with tower or elevated designs, encouraging imaginative play and supporting physical development.

    Interior and Exterior Customisation

    Customising a wooden playhouse with non-toxic paint allows you to create a personalised space. Adding window shutters or flower boxes enhances both charm and educational value. Solar or battery-powered lights can be installed for evening play, keeping the space bright and inviting.
