Isn’t this amazing?
A halo-wearing neighbor gifted me this gigantic dollhouse for my angels. Their daughter had outgrown the playing house stage of development.

We had to dismantle it and reassemble when it got to my home.
The toilet WORKS, makes flushing sounds, can you believe it? Most of the furniture was included, (not all) so I ordered a bunkbed to match the one in their real bedroom here at Grandma’s house.
The refrigerator and pantry are full of the most exquisite miniature replica foods I’ve ever seen.

I had a dollhouse when I was little, but nothing this extravagant!
The original Angel Boy also had a dollhouse. I very carefully set up all the furniture in each room in anticipation of all the fun we’d have together and his only joy was to shake the house until everything fell over as he shouted, “Earthquake!” I’d reset the furniture only to have him shake it again and again until I finally gave up.
Being a good mom, I also got him an anatomically correct boy doll and his response with that was to twist off the head and use it as a ball for our Border Collie and laugh maniacally as he retrieved it, tossing the head to roll at our feet to throw again. That’s my boy…Good times.
FYI…My son DID have stuffed animals and dolls that he loved and treated with empathy and kindness so I wasn’t too worried that he was going to end up becoming a sociopath.
It’s almost as tall as I am, 60 inches, and about the same width. I had to move things around to make room for it in the living room because the angels’ bedroom is full of other toys.

They are going to LOVE it!
In case you were wondering, YES, I’ve been playing with it. I need to add more members to my doll family along with a barbecue and a jacuzzi.
An angel for my angels. I am SO grateful. Despite the neverending pandemic and its variants; violence and racism and cruelty, there are still wonderful people all around us to reinforce our hope for humanity.
This is beautiful. I think what I like most is that there are STAIRS. Every other dollhouse I’ve ever seen required the dolls to fly from floor to floor.

LOL yes, I see what you’re saying, I never thought of that! And not only stairs–there’s an ELEVATOR on the left, I guess in case they get tired of walking the spiral staircases!

I never had a doll house as a child and didn’t enjoy people-dolls, just stuffed animals. My children didn’t play with the dollhouse I gave them, either. I guess some families do and some families don’t. I guess that also goes for princess dresses. 🤷🏻♀️

Little Char loves to dress up her dolls and set them up for tea parties, so I think she’ll love the house more than Theo will but he’ll play as long as there are cars or trucks for the garage. Thanks for reminding me to get a new dress haha!
