I bought this for my 16 month old for an early Christmas present since she loved to climb into small places I thought this would be a great hide away for her.  We use it in our play room and she loves to play in it with the other little girl that I babysit.She loves to open and shut the door and shutters and will ring the door bell over and over.The only thing I would of liked is for more toy accesories for the amount of money.
