Hi,
Our backyard is small. We are thinking of getting a cubby house for DS who is 4. Not sure for how long he will be into it though. We do have no.2 on the way. Is it more of a girl thing to be into? Most of the ones I've seen cost an arm and a leg. Any tips on where to find reasonably priced ones if we decide to get one?
We bought ours from bunning , its small and plastic but DS was 2 and he loves it.... I think 4 might be a better age for a wooden , bigger cubby that can be shared between your kids and he could use it as a fort etc... The one we bought was only $99 but like i said its smallish so a four year old would probably have to duck a bit IYKWIM
We got ours off ebay (brand new though) and it is absolutely awesome!! Both DD & DS love it!! We have it dividied in half, so to speak, and have a girly kitchen on one side and a work/tool bench on the other. So half girl half boy.
Not sure how much you are looking at paying or how big but ours Outback off ebay. DH & I can both stand up in it.
We got ours off ebay 2nd hand. Sounds like Liviams one, dh can stand up in the middle and he is just on 6 foot! Its wooden and cost us about $550 (brand new it was $1300). Although I have only girls, Liv is 4 and shes in there every other day!
You can get second hand ones off ebay OR you could look into building your own play fort thing as opposed to a cubby house. It will see your son further into his years than a cubby house ITMS?
We're getting DD a cubby house brand new its costing us a little over one thousand delivered not to mention the ground work we need to do but I don'y mind the expense since finding out we're having another girl. We're also building our own swings and will buy a slide for the girls as well.
places like Sheds and Beyond in pakenham do long term laybys for their things (but you have to buy them new) so even if you did a long layby might make the cost a little more bearable??
Just an idea x
