David and Jeanie Stiles use their own experiences to guide the amateur carpenter through the steps necessary to build an imaginative playhouse -- for the backyard, basement or playroom.

Projects include: A cardboard-box playhouse, a gingerbread playhouse, a fiberglass whale, a barn bed playhouse, a spook playhouse, a U.F.O. playhouse, a tree house, a log playhouse, a garden trellis playhouse, a three-legged fort and a complete selection of accessories. | | | |

 Great book Oct 07, 2009
I bought this as a gift for my father, who wants to build playhouses as a side business. He loves it!
Great plans for building a playhouse Jun 29, 2009
My husband promised our grandson he would build him a playhouse. There is a great choice of plans and easy to follow instructions. We can't wait to get started!

 OK Book Apr 19, 2009
It would be nice if the book had more wooden houses to choose from. We are interested in a playhouse, such as the cover of the book. The cover is why I bought it. We already have a play structure. I would have liked to look at a book with just playhouses. This book goes into lots of different structures, that were simply no interest to us. Felt like this book was a waste of money for us.

What do you get for the money? Oct 09, 2007
This is a great book wide range of choices, from a bed made to look like a barn, a play cube with each side a different fantasy (fire dept, post office, general store and puppet theatre) and not just standard playhouses. A log house, treehouses, and a trellised house that begs to be covered in climbing flowering vines and outfitted for a tea party.
You also get swings, a hand-built trolley, a cargo net climber, table and chairs for the house, a slide, shelves, benches and a swan-shaped rocking chair.
Admittedly not all plans for a beginner woodworker. He assumes a level of comfort in building that not all may have. Each project contains a detailed parts list--something lacking in other children's playhouse-type books, and lists the ages of children that the project is geared towards. The diagrams are black-and-white exploded drawings (show a two-dimensional view with measurements, angles and supports such as cleats or support blocks). If you are accustomed to these common layouts, you'll be fine.
He does make his own doors and windows which you may want to skip doing and just buy.

You can build. Jul 12, 2007
Clear, concise and well illutrated. I bought this book to use as a point of departure/inspiration to build a playhouse. The authors have done a great job on all thier carpentry/design books.
