Wordless Wednesday: Cottages for Kids

by Kate on May 25th, 2010 | 26 Comments » | In Weekly Features, Wordless Wednesday

Over the weekend I took the kids to a local event called Cottages for Kids. It’s really a great charity event – architects and builders design and create one of a kind playhouses that are sold and auctioned off for a children’s charity. But, before they’re sold kids can play in all of them. The 6 playhouses were amazing! Too bad we don’t have 10 grand laying around to get one.

Princess Cottage, anyone?

Maybe Gem of the Jungle is more your style?

And I bought a raffle ticket to win the prize playhouse, so obviously I’ll win and we’ll be adding Kidz Shak to our backyard.

    Good Luck in the raffle!! I like the Kidz shak too! No playhouses for us we have hornets that like to take over our living spaces :(

    Wow! Those are impressive. Though I have to say, with a cardboard box, you can always upgrade and renovate. I would be afraid to break one of those fabulous playhouses!

      The Kidz Shak looks similar, but all of these houses were custom made by local architects and builders. The playhouses on Jon & Kate + 8 are called Kids Crooked House.
