This Colonial-style Dollhouse is sure to provide your child or grandchild hours of quiet, indoor pleasure. But, it's our guess that it will keep you happily occupied as well. That's because this spacious playhouse is as much a pleasure to build and decorate as it is for a child to play with. It's a dream house the entire family can enjoy.

Made from a full-size pattern that you simply trace on to your wood, this home has space for six large rooms on three separate floors. A balcony and front porch add realistic charm and the shutters and trim lend the perfect finishing touch.

Fourteen photos and step-by-step instructions ensure that all parents can complete this project. When done, the house stands 26 inches tall, 24 inches wide and 13 inches deep.
