When I visited my mother yesterday she wanted to stop in at Hobby Lobby, and we spotted these adorable plain brown houses just right for Daisy and her Little Animals.
They are sturdier than cardboard (they're labelled paper mache), and the roofs come off like lids, and you can color them.
And they're very inexpensive--I think the largest was $7 (and there's always that coupon code . . .) The timing was perfect for Daisy, as she had recently acquired a goat postman. Now he's got somewhere to deliver the mail
Yes! My girls have been asking for a Calico Critter house but we've just invested in the animals and furniture because the houses seem too expensive for what you get. These will be perfect for Christmas!
ReplyDeleteSo precious! Hours of fun!:)

A typical day at Pleasant View Schoolhouse - the comings and goings of visitors of all shapes and sizes. :) (or my conception of it!)

I would definitely move to a village that sweet and charming.
ReplyDeletekittens in the stroller! I think I may want to play, too. Sweetest village ever!
ReplyDeleteLove this! Can we all live in Daisy's world?
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute village.. I know Daisy is having so much fun playing with this village.
ReplyDeleteWhere oh where do you get the sweet little animal figures?

I would have loved these when I was growing up - anything miniature was fair game. The idea of a goat postman is perfect and the reality (this reality, anyway) is even better :)
ReplyDeleteJulie, these are called Calico Critters or Sylvanian Animals and we order them from Amazon. Larger cities may have them in toy stores--or you could always go to Germany, where you can find whole window displays full of them . . . .Daisy's dream career is to work in *that* shop.
ReplyDeleteIs there a donkey family? They could be delivery men.
