Jigsaw Dolly Domiciles

This Dollhouse Puzzle Appeals to the Inquisitive Kid

— August 8, 2011 — Life-Stages
A child does not have to jump from the world of toy trains to video games in order find some truly stimulating amusement, for this Dollhouse Puzzle is a charming example of a plaything with unlimited possibilities. Cleverly conceived by one of the creatives behind Shape of a Spoon, this adorable lumber abode challenges logic and imagination.

The designer has been kind enough to offer readers instructions for how to make this delightful jigsaw puzzle dwelling, even posting a sketched image of the template online. An amateur carpenter can begin with a pentagonal house-shaped wooden block from which several notable forms can be cut with a bandsaw.

The kitchen table and pair of chairs are joined with a collection of geometric bricks and wedges. These Dollhouse Puzzle pieces can be stacked and arranged by a curious kid in countless ways.
