I have a wooden tree house set and found the cutest
dolls to go with it from :http://www.giftsofnorway.com/gnomies.html
So cute!
To see my tree house that I use as an alternative environment to the
Grammar Farm

I have looked for more realistic figures than winged fairies
to use with this set...looks like I've found them!
What a great idea! I've been looking into getting my daughter a tree house, but have never thought about using it in lieu of a farm! Which of the tree houses do you have? Or do you have both? I've been investigating, but thinking of using it as a grammar farm will definitely change some of my criteria. I ordered those gnomies! They are adorable and I love the way they employ the women from Ecuador. I've also been trying to find some nice bendy people to go with our seasonal display and not found any that I liked. I actually made some fairies recently, then realized that I already had four bendy people from our M & D doorbell house! http://www.amazon.com/Melissa-Doug-Deluxe-Wooden-Doorbell/dp/B00021HB9U/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1329727722&sr=8-1 Oh well, I only made one and it was kind of fun!
ReplyDeletePS I looked at your bendable people from
Deletethe doorbell house and they will work fine
with the tree house as well.
I actually have both theses sets. I started with
ReplyDeletethe big tree house when I got a great deal on
it at Red Balloon toy store. Then I started ordering
all the sets from Enchantmints until I collected the
whole set. You can make a little outdoor environment
with the animals and garden from Plan Toys...try
Amazon. I try to use more realistic figures than the
ones from Enchantmint. Everything is sold separately so
that worked out for me. Next is the job of naming your
figures and pieces (nouns) and then coming up with
labels and command cards for the set with verbs, and modifiers viz. adjectives and adverbs. You can use
cut up colored note cards and hand write them or
use a computer.
Have fun!
