My 5 and 7 year old absolutely love playing pretend. We try and find activities that allow them to do that. I came across the Cocoro Playhouses by Norio Kids and I knew that they would be great for pretend play. I love anything that allows my kids to use their imagination and have fun!
We received two Mini Cocoro Playhouses to try out. I helped my kids set these up first. I figured it would be a great way for me to learn how to put one together on a smaller scale first. I just want to say that the mini playhouses are absolutely adorable. My kids were so excited to see a mini version of the full size playhouse too. It really is fun. It's also a great way to let them build hands on. I also love that you can combine more than one playhouse and make a larger model using 2 or more kits. You can even allow your child to decorate the playhouse. These were very simple to put together too. That is very important to me. My kids get very frustrated if something is overly complicated. These cute mini size playhouses retail for $3.99 on the Norio Kids website.
Mini Cocoro Playhouse
We also received the regular (full size) Cocoro Playhouse for review. This is pretty much the exact same thing as the Mini Cocoro Playhouse pictured above. It was also simple to put together. It honestly took about 10 minutes to set up. I will say that the cardboard this is made out of is sturdy. My kids love the playhouse. They plan on decorating and coloring the outside. I love that this is a fun way for kids to play pretend. My kids were inside pretending to play house. They were also using it to pretend to camp inside. The possibilities are endless with little imaginations. This is a great playhouse to set up inside for your kids to play in when it's hot out. We get weather that is over 100 degrees in the summer and I know my kids will be using this to play inside. My cats love it too. I caught them in it today after the kids went to school. You can also purchase more than one of these and make a larger playhouse by combining the two sets. The large version of the Cocoro Playhouse retails for $49 on their website. Do you have a little one that would enjoy this?
