Awesome Eco-friendly Dollhouses

Ecofriendly dollhouse

Surprise, my 3-year old daughter is a big fan of Frozen! We started looking at Christmas gifts for her and thought about a dollhouse. I wanted to find an alternative to the sleek and colourful Frozen dollhouse. So, that began my search for an eco-friendly dollhouse.

I wanted to find an alternative to a convenient and cheap plastic toy. I searched through a number of the eco-friendly toy brands that we are familiar with to see what they had to offer. A bit to my surprise, there were several eco-friendly dollhouses on the market.

There are always common characteristics of eco-friendly toys. The most obvious one in the eco-friendly dollhouse category is that they are primarily made from wood. Another feature is that they use very little paint. When they do have colour, the companies are very particular about the paints they use. They make sure the paints are non-toxic and child-friendly.

The following is a list of some of our favourite eco-friendly dollhouses in no particular order. I hope you like it:

2. The Green Dollhouse by Plan Toys

The Green dollhouse by Plan Toys is one of my favourites. It looks like a postmodernist architect designed it. It has a very minimalistic and clean design. Best of all, it features a solar panel, a wind generator, and recycle bins. Plan Toys is characterized by being an energy-conscious company manufacturing their products with the 3 R’s in mind: Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle. This toy is made with recycled rubberwood and dyed mostly with soy.  If your children don’t have fun with it, you probably will.
