Great toy, watch for safety hazards though! Posted 13 October 2008
This toy has been a great addition to my preschool classroom, the children love to use it. It's completely wooden with a real "tree" feel, which works great for my naturalistic program. The tree is also big enough for 3-4 children to use at the same time. However, on one occasion one of the children using the toy fell onto the stick that is intended for the tire swing to hang from, and it landed right below her eye leaving a nasty welt--a couple inches higher and it would have gone into her eye. I would strongly suggest removing that particular piece from the toy! We cut it off & hung the tire swing from the ladder, it's worked just fine. I'll be contacting the company to suggest making this a long term change!
Assembly was a bit difficult, but not terrible. All required hardware was included. Most Melissa and Doug toys can stand up to just about anything. This toy has taken a lot of abuse (as all toys do in a preschool environment!) and the base has stood up well. However, the swing fell apart within the first week & was impossible to repair, and the stairs jam on occasion. These are minor issues, compared to the overall quality of the toy, but should be taken into consideration. I looked at a number of options before purchasing this tree house, and feel that even despite these flaws this is still the best wooden tree house on the market.
Fun for every age Posted 31 October 2007
My kids love this treehouse. Great for encouraging little imaginations. I love it because it's a nice-looking item (as opposed to some giant, plastic cheap-looking toy) and not an eye-sore in the family room.
A great, lasting piece Posted 30 August 2007
We have had the treehouse for over a year and it has been constantly in use. The children (8 and 6) have used it as a base for pirates, little people, barbies, knights, and every other character in the house. Neighbor children come just to stage an adventure at the treehouse in the family room. It's a lasting, creative, open-ended piece of childhood!
