Cubby Houses

The Best Cubby Houses for Kids: Explore our Collection of Fun Cubby Play Houses

Ah, the fun of a good ol' cubby house! These little kid's play houses are the perfect addition to any backyard, providing hours of fun,

So, what exactly makes a good cubby house?

A cubby house is essentially a small, mini house that is usually made out of wood or plastic. They can be as simple as a few planks of wood put together, or as elaborate as a full-blown mini-mansion. The most important thing is that they provide a place for kids to play and let their imaginations run wild.

Why is a cubby or play house such a great addition to your garden?

It's a great way to encourage outdoor play and get kids away from screens. Plus, it's a fantastic way to encourage creativity and imagination in kids. And let's be real, who doesn't love the idea of having their very own little hideaway?

A cubby house is a wonderful addition to any backyard. It provides endless hours of entertainment, encourages outdoor play and creativity, and is just plain fun. So if you've been thinking about getting a cubby house for your garden, go for it! Your kids (and inner child) will thank you.

Great quaiity

This was much better made than I expected it to be given the price range. It was easy to put together and just generally feels higher quality. Toddler loves it.

Two negatives: the steel utensils etc are a bit small, and the stovetop makes an annoying noise instead of just lighting up like a normal stovetop would.

Excellent

Very well made, very sturdy and so easy to use with the additional tree strap. Especially like the hole in the bottom so water will drain out instead of pooling inside the tyre when it rains. My 11 year old daughter absolutely loves her new swing!

Great play kitchen

While the kitchen was a little challenging for me to put together with a few wrong turns along the way, instructions were good, if you read the throughly. My child absolutely love it and fits so well in the room.

Cubby Houses

L
ooking for something that will give your kids years of fun? You should probably consider a cubby house. Not only are they great for little kids, even as the kids get older they can use it for when they need some space. 
In Australia 10's of thousands of parents and grandparents purchase their kids a cubby house and have done for decades. Along with Trampolines, cubby houses are one of the most popular pieces of backyard play equipment. 

Cubby houses provide hours of entertainment, far from the video games, tablets and TVs many of our kids are so used to. Getting your child into the fresh air is very beneficial plus, chances are that if they’re outside they’re also getting some exercise and fresh air.

There are so many different things they can do in their kids cubby house, and you can let them play independently, they can play with their siblings or friends, or you can accompany them and let them show you around their house.

A cubby house is the perfect place for your child to flex those imagination muscles. The house can be a school, then a restaurant, then a fortress, depending on their mood. They can make up games and even make up people, inviting imaginary friends over for tea. And because it’s their space, it gives them a sense of possession, so it’s more special to them.

In their cubby house they can learn to enjoy peace and quiet, they can do their homework, they can have playdates, and they can use it to just chill out.

In short, a cubby house will help your child boost his creativity, improve his social and problem solving skills, and practice sharing and negotiation. And once you have one in your yard you may be faced with an interesting dilemma: getting your kids to leave their house and come back inside. 

Before Buying A Cubby House

Adding a cubby house to your yard is a big decision as these tend to be expensive, so before you buy, here are a few aspects to consider before you take the plunge.

You will need to measure the space you have and choose a cubby house that fits comfortably in your backyard. If the cubby house you like has a slide, be sure there is no drop in the land, or you will need to make adjustments
