There are 3 options here, one to layby the tree house, handy if you are on a budget or would like a tree house for a surprise a little while down the track, the option to purchase the treehouse without layby and as most of the magazines I advertise in are sold in New Zealand and a number of these tree hosues go across the ditch there is one listing for my Kiwi customers which includes freight to NZ.
A question I get asked a lot is what age this is suitable for... The box says from 3+ and that is largely because of the size of the pieces.
The chain on the swing wouldn't hold up to the tugging play of a toddler I
don't think, it is a bit delicate and the tossing and throwing that is also
associated with that age group may also see the tree damaged. The opening
and closing is a deliberate action rather than the bash or thump action of a
toddler. Our daughter has had one since she was about 4 and plays with it
well (she is now 6). There is the imagination that needs to come into
play as it is an interactive toy not one that tells the kids what to do or
how to play with it.
I have had customers purchase them for their one year
olds (boys and girls) as a room decoration and strictly supervised play with mummy or daddy and
had people purchase for children as old as 8 or 9 as well as psychologists
and psychiatrists for their practices as it is good for role play
reenactment. I wouldn't leave a smaller than 3 year old alone with it.
It isn't a dolls house it is a tree house and is suitable for a boy or a girl.
I
have also had grandparents of many different aged children purchase it as a
communal gift to stay at Grandma's house, it spreads the cost of the gift
across the children, lengthens the enjoyment of the toy and also gives the
kids something to look forward to playing with at Grandma's! Of course this
only works if parents are in the same vicinity as you of course!
Freight is included in the cost of the tree house to any Australian address. Yes I do take Amex but for the tree house I would prefere you use Visa or MasterCard if that's okay. Thanks!
