Wendy House - what shall I put in it??

[maggiethecat]

We were fortunate to inherit nice wooden wendy house when we bought this house. DDs are 4yrs and 17 mths and I would like to put stuff in there in readiness for the good (?) weather. Thoughts so far are to get them a kitchen/stove, some shelving to keep play food, pots, pans, utensils and a little table and chair for them to do some artwork - not sure I can fit all of this in and may have to scrap the toy stove. Of course, I will ask DD1 for her input.
How do your chidren use theirs and what really gives them pleasure when they're in there?

We painted the back wall of our (inherited) playhouse with blackboard paint, the children love chalking.

There is an IKEA cooker there along with two teeny chairs and wee table.

let them furnish it themselves

lots of rocks and leaves

We have a couple of chairs, a tea set, a wheel barrow and trowels/pots, no room for table but it has some ledges inside.

Lots of blankets, throws and big cushions. Mine two are forever in the wendy house snuggled up or drawing at the little table. We often have our tea in the wendy house in the summer too (me included!).
