Great independent play!
Date - March 3, 2009
"This is a classic, timeless dollhouse! It was easy to assemble, and looks fabulous! I love that it is sturdy, and not made from plastic. I purchased it for our 3 year old daughter upon the birth of our son, and she has enjoyed reinacting family evetns with her critters...giving me the time to spend with our son!"

Perfect Holiday Gift for a little girl!
Date - April 10, 2008
"I don't know who enjoyed this more-me (having such fun setting it up-and a cinch to put together!) or my daughter on Christmas morning! This dollhouse keeps her busy for hours and I just love the old school look of it! It's held up great and I know both of my daughters will continue to play with it for years to come. The rooms are nice and spacious and it is adorable from all angles. I can't wait to decorate it with surprises each holiday season!"

Perfect Present
Date - October 24, 2009
"Beautifully constructed, easy to assemble! Our 3 year old was delighted to receive this as a gift. Spacious enough for little hands to move inhabitants through the home as they enact thier daily routines. Has proven a most suitable home for Calico Critters, Little People and Disney Princess's alike."

Perfect little house
Date - October 20, 2009
"This dollhouse is beautiful, well made, and easy to put together. The roof line on ours did not line up perfectly at first, but it seems to have settled a bit, improving the appearance. My 5-year-old plays with it often, filling it with Calico Critters and/or Little People and just about all their little furniture and belongings (her decorating sense tends toward clutter at this point). Big and beautiful enough to make a real splash as a Christmas or birthday gift!"

Beautiful Dollhouse
Date - October 20, 2009
"I bought this for my daughter's 6th birthday. She loves Calico Critters, and I wanted her to have a dollhouse for them. Shortly after we bought it, we moved. I was happy to see that the dollhouse made the long trip without getting chipped in any way. My only problem with this was that one of the screws that was supposed to hold the staircase down didn't fit. Fortunately, it didn't affect being able to play with the dollhouse."

Adorable Dollhouse

"This dollhouse is the perfect size for preschoolers - not too big. My daughter loves putting her Calico Critters in it and playing with them. Great for imaginary play and role playing."

So sweet!
Date - November 29, 2008
"My daughter loves Calico Critters, but we never liked the all-plastic house that is usually shown with their sets. This wooden house from Land of Nod is perfect! We really wanted a wooden, more classic look -- and this little home give my daugher plenty of room for all her critter figures and furniture. We also like the big open rooms which are easier for my toddler to navigate and which give many more options for furniture arrangments."

The best dollhouse
Date - November 29, 2008
"I was so excited when I came across this dollhouse because it reminded me of mine when I was little. Now my daughter can enjoy her dollhouse as I did for many years. The details are perfect to the "T". I can't wait until she sees it on Christmas morning set up and ready to play."

The critter family needs a place to call home...
Date - October 28, 2008
"I bought the fox family for my niece and they go with her everywhere. So this was the next step for the family to have a home sweet home. To see such a beautiful smile was worth it. The quality of the house is outstanding."

My granddaughter and I have the best time making up stories about the "Family" and what they are doing in each room. What a wonderful way to imagine!!! Thank you for giving me the opportunity to spend such quality time with my granddaughter"

Perfect
Date - October 14, 2008
"I looked high and low for the perfect dollhouse for my three year old daughter's birthday. I am so glad this is the one I purchased. It is absolutely charming and the quality is fanatastic. I purchased the house, three families and five sets of furniture to divvy up between family and friends as gifts from us all to complete the set. (I have several girlfriends who are going to do the same for Christmas). She has not stopped playing with it, my five year old son plays with it too! First toy purchase from Land of Nod and best toy purchase by far! Thanks Land of Nod!"

Most imaginative doll house
Date - October 14, 2008
"I bought this doll house as a birthday present for my granddaughter's third birthday. She loved it and so did her five year old macho brother. It is one of the few toys they really share and play with. Best of all I put it together myself and didn't have to ask my son-in-law to do it. It is so attractive and different and invites all kinds of imaginative playing."

Home ownership!
Date - May 19, 2008
"Wow! What a great intro into the world of make-pretend home ownership! We use the stairs, furnish, however we like! Decorate the outside window boxes and so much more with a small family of friends! Roof doesn't leak and we don't pay realestate tax!
LOVE IT!!!

Little Critters that go in the house
Date - May 11, 2008
"I bought the Mouse Family that goes with this house and my daughter loves them!!! She's usually got one or more clutched in her hands whenever we go to the park, the store, even the doctor's. She sleeps with them too. They are the perfect size for little hands to hold and they are simply adorable. We're getting the house next!"

Great 1st Dollhouse
Date - May 7, 2008
"This is such a gorgeous dollhouse, you might not think it is a good choice for a young toddler. However, it is so well made, it can really stand up to the task! Plus, it is beautiful, and you won't mind having it in any room of the house."

Novelty for a Manhattan Kid
Date - May 6, 2008
"I should have bought more than one critter family, as the kids keep thinking it's a NYC apartment building and cramming everything into one "apartment." A very nice apartment building, mind you (though OSHA probably wouldn't approve the stairs -- kind of narrow for little hands to maneuver animals/people through). It is a nice old-school design, easy to assemble, and pleasing on the eye with cute window boxes, sweet little curtains, and very welcoming Welcome mat. The representative I spoke with on the phone (had to rush order it for a birthday present) was helpful and charming. It's been a good choice for our family all around."

So cute I wish it was available 25 yrs ago!
Date - May 6, 2008
"We purchased this dollhouse, along with the bunny and cat families and furniture, for our 3.5 year old daughter last Christmas. She loves it! Unlike many of the dollhouses we looked at, you can actually get your hands in the rooms to play! Imagine that! The quality is fantastic--even with her 2 year old brother trying to "play" with it. I would highly recommend this adorable dollhouse."
