I am not sure who will be reading this post...(as I always say... it always intrigues me who actually reads my blog posts), but I think it is always has been a big issue especially for men to accept that their son plays with a dollhouse.
How do you feel about this personally?
As a young child, I was the eldest in the family, with a sister as a second child...We did not have any boys toys around our house....and on the odd occasion that I went out with mum and looked at some of the shop windows.....many a times I would have asked her to buy me a car.....and I remember quite clearly ...mum.. saying you do not play with cars?
- How do you feel if your son asks to have a dollhouse as a gift.
- How does your husband or you as a father feel. Does this annoy you?
- Does it make you feel uncomfortable perhaps talking to your mates about this subject?
- Do you think less of your son if he shows the desire to play with a dollhouse?
I think we all play house one way or another ...it is part of or life... the majority of us live in a house after all...so what is wrong for a child...boys or girls to play "pretend role play" with a dollhouse.
Through role play skills such as language, social and physical skills are developed. It also stimulates children's imagination.
What do you think? And What do you look for when you are in the market for purchasing a Doll House?
