The importance of building a children's playhouse

A small child is already a person. And the period of childhood is a preparation for future adulthood. The kid reproduces the actions of his parents, acquaintances, as if projecting them on a reduced scale. Therefore, a wooden one in the yard or in the country will become one of his favorite places to stay. This is a unique opportunity to create for the baby his own world, isolated from adults.

In a children's toy home, you can install miniature furniture, dishes, hang curtains, even prepare bed dress. Kids will be happy to receive guests there, play, eat and even sleep during the day.

Material selection

Before adults who decide to make a miniature toy dwelling for their child, the question arises: what is the best way to build a house? In principle, in haste the building can be built from cardboard boxes or, having dug several rails into the ground, pull a film, oilcloth, fabric or wallpaper over them. But such a “dwelling” is like a straw house from a fairy tale about three little pigs - bad weather and wind can destroy it in an instant.

Purchase plastic components for a miniature building in the country - the easiest way out. However, this material can hardly be called particularly durable. This means that the building itself will not last long.

Some build structures of brick or natural stone. It's pretty creative and pretty. But the stone, although it is stronger and more durable than other materials, requires additional finishing, as it is quite heat-resistant.

It is undesirable to use sheets of fiberboard or chipboard for construction, despite the fact that suppliers prove their environmental friendliness, because after all they are made using varnishes, adhesives, synthetic resins, and various other fillers. Yes, and they do not shine with a special fortress, and in a place open to precipitation, the warping process is inevitable.

That is why it is best to build a children's wooden house. For children, you can build a log structure or a boardwalk.

Benefits of wooden buildings for children

The most environmentally clean materials considered wood or stone. In addition, unlike stone and brick, wooden buildings additional finishing is not needed. This means that the construction will cost less and will be completed faster. Moreover, a pine wooden house for a child also has a positive effect on his health.

The advantage of building a miniature playhouse is also that you can use the leftovers from the construction of the necessary outbuildings. And in the case when there is no need to have a wooden playhouse for children, it is used as warehouse space or original gazebo. There is an option to convert it even into a beautiful chicken coop or a place for cages with rabbits, chinchillas or arctic foxes.

Basic provisions for the construction of a house for a child

Most important condition- safety of children. Therefore, you should consider calculating both the location of the structure and its strength. It is best to dig in and cement the logs (piles), to which boards for the walls will subsequently be stuffed and the roof will be attached.

It is important to check that nails or screws do not protrude. The boards themselves must also be well processed so that children cannot get hurt, splinter their arms, legs or backs.

If the house is portable or collapsible, it is worth considering fixing it so that it does not turn over, fall over, or crumble. Therefore, still in this case stationary buildings are less dangerous.

Ideas for children's wooden houses on the site

First of all, the builder-designer must decide on the dimensions of the building. Important factors will be appearance. It depends on the choice of the type of building what the wooden house for the child will be like, how it will fit into the site.

For example, good decision for an uneven surface with slopes and ravines, there will be a play complex consisting of several structures connected to each other by passages, bridges, stairs, some of which will be two-story, while others will be one-story.

Wooden gazebos located on the roof are very convenient, where adults can drink tea, chat or play loto in the evening. It’s so much fun for the kids to climb into their toy dwelling along the ladder! A plastic slide will add functionality to this structure, from which kids can roll down.

Fairy tale houses

You can arrange the entire site in a fantasy style. The little house will be just a part common solution. And the whole territory can be arranged in the form of a Flower Town, where Dunno lived, with miniature ponds and huge mushrooms.

And the option of a gnome village can also attract designers who decide to build a wooden one on their site. The drawings of the building itself are quite simple. For a master familiar with a saw, hammer, nails and planer, it will not be difficult to build such a house.

An interesting variant of the "crooked" house. It can be stylized as the home of Baba Yaga, a forest sorcerer, gnome or other fairy-tale character.

"Crooked" house - construction plan

Bringing this creative idea to life is a bit more difficult. Only two opposite walls are the same has such a wooden house for children. drawing reflects this feature structures.

Detail A is the front wall. No cutout for front door this will be the back wall of the house. You should pay attention to the fact that all sides of the part differ in size, so they are indicated in the drawing by different letters. The part itself has only one right angle.

Side wall adjacent to right angle, has the shape of a rectangle (detail 2), the vertical sides of which are equal to the side of the front wall (c).

The opposite wall (detail 3) is also rectangular. The vertical side must match the sloping side of the front wall (c). In the presented drawing, a version of the house with a square floor has been developed, but if desired, it can be made rectangular.

Parts 4 and 5 are the roof. The sides of the rectangles are indicated by letters corresponding to the sizes. However, it should be noted that if it is decided to make visors, then you need to add a few centimeters to them.
