Tumbleweed Lodge Cubby House

The tumbleweed Lodge cubby house is a slightly elevated structure with a railed in covered porch and a deck attach to the cubby house itself. It is moderate in size and is perfect for the growing family who wants to enjoy the use of a cubby house without taking up too much space. The railings serve as a safety feature allowing children to play, skip and jump on the deck without fear of falling off the slightly elevated structure. Plus, parents can feel safe when younger children are playing on the decks as well.

Your child will use their backyard toy as a means to use their imagination. They will play in the wild west, where they have to catch the bandits in the Tumbleweed Lodge, or sit out in the Saloon on the deck playing cards looking for those who robbed the bank, etc. Of course the next day, the cubby house could turn into a space ship – it is only limited to your child’s imagination.

Did you know that outdoor toys help children develop problem solving skills? This is because children who play in their own backyard with outdoor toys are often allowed to do so without any real structure from adults – and that’s good! When children have unstructured play they learn to recognize puzzles and mysteries. Recognizing what the problem is, where the parameters are is a really important part of your problem solving skills – and that is the part our kids are not learning as much today. So, by giving your child an outdoor toy like the Tumbleweed Lodge, you are giving them so much more than something to do, you are helping their development.

There are accessories available for your Tumbleweed Lodge cubby house as well. You can choose to purchase one of the door kits which have the choices of half door or full door sizes, flower boxes to pretty up the windows in the front of the cubby house, skylights for more natural light inside the cubbie itself, and a letter box where you can exchange mail with your child. Decorate the inside to help your children feel right at home in their cubby house. Areas around your cubby can be made into a garden or extend your child’s play area by adding a swing set or spring animal toy.
