Children's playhouse, small house

How to choose a children's playhouse ?

There are many different models of children's garden sheds. They come in all sizes, shapes, and materials. A shed can be equipped with various accessories: a slide, a balcony, a ladder, or even a porch to store children's bulky toys. Some of them may have one or more windows and even replicate western-style designs.

When choosing your playhouse, you should consider the space available in your garden, the aesthetics, the age of your children, and the maintenance the playhouse will require. The budget you want to allocate to your playhouse is also an important factor: prices vary between wooden and plastic models.

The wooden playhouse : a safe bet

The wooden playhouse fits perfectly into your garden. Thanks to its natural color, it will become a must-have for your outdoor space. A favourite among children from a very young age, the wooden playhouse offers excellent value for money: you'll make them happy!

Our playhouses are easy to assemble. They are made from northern fir wood sourced from sustainably managed forests. Thanks to its very slow growth, this wood is exceptionally resistant to the elements, making your playhouse even more durable.

The wooden playhouse is fully customizable: you can keep its natural appearance or paint it for a completely personalized style: colourful vibe with opaque wood paint, matte finish with water-based paint, more natural look with a simple wood treatment. For children's enjoyment, you can also paint the interior to give even more personality to your playhouse.

Plastic playhouse : an economical and durable alternative

A plastic playhouse is an interesting alternative to the wooden playhouse. It offers many advantages, including: Weather resistance: plastic playhouses are not affected by rain, sun, or snow. They are therefore very durable, even if they are constantly exposed to the elements. Easy maintenance: Plastic playhouses require very little maintenance. A simple sweep of the broom is all it takes to clean them. Affordable price: plastic playhouses are generally less expensive than wooden playhouses.

Plastic playhouses are therefore a good option for parents who want to invest in a durable and economical playhouse. They are also a good solution for children who want a colorful and original playhouse.

How to maintain a children's playhouse ?

To maintain your playhouse and for a longer lifespan of the wood, it is recommended to treat it twice a year:

• You can apply a wood stain before assembly because you won't be able to access certain areas once the playhouse is assembled. Several shades of would stain are available, and you can choose from them depending on the desired final result.
• Maintenance is necessary, especially if the playhouse is not protected from the sun and bad weather. We recommend treating the woodwork with a fungicide (inside and out) and pesticides (against fungi and insects).
