Cardboard Dollhouse Kits

This Dollar Store Playset Includes a House, Characters and Stickers

— June 4, 2016 — Life-Stages
Buying a dollhouse, as well as characters and furnishings to occupy it can be expensive, but this dollar store dollhouse kit provides an affordable alternative to expensive plastic toy sets.

The Dollar Tree toy makes it possible to set up a simple home frame in the style of either a townhouse or a castle, plus bring it to life with people, pets and stickers for decoration.

The 17" x 12" cardboard dollhouse kit provides a simple base that could be easily added onto with other toys, as well as expanded with other paper crafts. While it is possible for someone who loves arts and crafts to create a DIY version of this complete dollhouse from scratch, an affordable kit like this one significantly cuts down on the time needed between assembly and play.
Trend Themes
1. Affordable Dollhouse Kits - This trend shows the potential for companies to create more affordable DIY toy sets for children that can be easily set up and customized for creativity.
2. Cardboard Craft Toys - This trend demonstrates the potential for companies to create various playsets using cardboard materials at low costs to assist parents with budget constraints.
3. DIY Playsets - DIY playset kits like this cardboard dollhouse kit allow for more personalization, creativity, and imagination in children's playtime.
Industry Implications
1. Toy Industry - The toy industry is presented with the opportunity to create more affordable, customizable, and interactive playsets for children that can still provide the same level of excitement and creativity as pricier alternatives.
2. DIY and Crafting Industry - This industry can take advantage of this trend by creating more types of affordable DIY kits that could be put together quickly and easily without requiring a high level of skill.
3. Retail Industry - Retailers can leverage this trend by creating more affordable and easy-to-assemble playsets that could be marketed to parents and children on a budget in a high-quality package.
