Mia got a playhouse!

Last week Mia's birthday present from my parents arrived.  It's a wooden playhouse. We call it "the pophuis", as we weren't really sure what to refer to it as in English, and that's what they call the playhouse at school too, so Mia knows it as a pophuis.

We need to still have it painted - the home owner's association where we live requested that we paint it the same colours as our house.

It's 1.3m off the ground - we're planning on putting a sandpit underneath it.

It's already completely full of furniture!  Mia chose to have her play kitchen and her play dressing table there.  Then we used her birthday money and bought a little doll's bed, a little carpet and some hanging décor.  Mom-in-law will make curtains for the two windows.  Her little patio set is outside on the small veranda.  Super cute!

We've already had our first tea party in the pophuis, Nala the dog also comes up the steps to investigate, and Ella spent a happy half hour in there this weekend, happily sitting in her Bumbo watching her big sister play!

I am planning to make a fairy garden somewhere around the pophuis, have been finding awesome inspiration on Pinterest, looking forward to putting the plans into action and involving Mia in it too.

Lots of fun times to be had in this pophuis, I know!
