Dollhouse Assembly Guide

During the holiday season, numerous families are searching for a timeless present that will thrill children both on the special day and in the years that follow. It's a time when these cherished gifts are meticulously chosen, beautifully wrapped, and presented with happiness and excitement. In this festive season, our aim is to offer our community members valuable guidance to ensure their shopping and gift-giving experience is as smooth and enjoyable as can be.

One of the best holiday gifts of all time is a dollhouse. Since 2003, the Victorian Dollhouse has been a favorite among our community members. While we advocate for early gift shopping, this blog will primarily feature dollhouses.

Selecting Memorable Holiday Gifts

Heirloom gifts are highly sought after, especially during the holiday season. These gifts not only bring joy to children on the special day but also create lasting memories as they grow with these cherished toys, reminiscing about the day they received them. These toys are often passed down through generations as children mature into adults.

Here's a list of PlanToys that are frequently chosen as heirloom gifts during the holiday season:

	Baby Walker - 6M+
	Palomino - 2Yrs+
	50 Unit Blocks - 3Yrs+
	Victorian Dollhouse - 3Yrs+
	My First Dollhouse - 3Yrs+
	Green Dollhouse With Furniture - 3Yrs+
	Motor Mechanic - 3Yrs+

Tip: Get to know the person you're gifting to. While you may already have a good grasp of the recipient's interests and wish list, asking questions can help you understand them even better and, at the same time, prevent duplicate gifts.

Early Holiday Shopping

Assembly Tips:

If what you ordered requires assembly and you are gifting it in your home, we suggest assembling it in advance. This is an ideal method for dollhouses for a variety of a reasons, with the most common one being it leaves more time for memories. Children can begin playtime as soon as possible, and there is no need to wait until their toys are put together, which also helps adults enjoy their special day, too.

Here are some tips for toy assembly:

• Assemble it in the location where you intend to keep it, whether for gifting later or in its designated play area. This avoids the need to move it once it's put together.
• Get organized and make sure you have a clear, spacious area. Lay out all the pieces and hardware, and double-check the instructions to ensure nothing is left out.
• If you can, team up with someone for assembly. Divide the tasks so each person knows what they're responsible for, like holding parts, inserting screws, or reading the instructions.
• For dollhouses, when inserting screws into each level, apply firm pressure to the piece it's being fastened to, ensuring that the hardware is secure and the screws go in smoothly.
• If you misplace the paper instructions, all assembly instructions can be downloaded from each item's page on our website.
• Reach out to us at customercare@plantoysinc.com if you need help.
