Boy alternative to a doll house??

My dd has the fisher price doll house. My boys love to play with it too with their dinosaurs. There isn't enough room for them all to play together so it always ends up in a full out brawl.

Looking to get the boys something.

Can anyone recommend something. They are almost 4 and 2.

Anyone have the bat cave? Or something similar

We have a fire truck house that was handed down to us (it's a dollhouse). Wood, so ? Kidkraft?

Honestly, it's cute but DS still likes to stomp his dinosaurs through DD princess castle.

Those imaginext sets are rated high. We have the firehouse and it's ok, but DS is still more into cars than action figures right now.

We have this one and my boys play with it all the time (but, I'm sure if I had a DD with a doll house, they would want to play with that as well - mainly to bother her).

Yes! My son has a fisher price imaginext bat cave and plays with it all the time. We have collected a bunch of little imaginext superheros to go along with it.

We just saw a little Ninja Turtles one that he now wants. It's called Half Shell Heros Super Sewer HQ

My sons have one and they used it a bunch too - great alternative to a doll house. My friend bought it for her son when he asked for a doll house one Christmas. My daughter now 3 - started using it as a doll house too!!! I am actually about to throw mine out because it has seen better days and need to make room for a real doll house!

I too am looking for a dollhouse alternative for my boys. All three fight over space for the dollhouse constantly. Like rolling around on the floor fights. Its ridiculous! I am thinking of the imaginext batcave. Both DS's love batman so I think they'd like it. Although they don't seem to be built to sturdy for the price. I can still picture all three fighting over the bat cave though.....

Re: Boy alternative to a doll house??

I agree with a pp on looking into a castle set. I feel like that's so greatly gender neutral that your dd can play with it as well as your ds. Especially if the likes dinosaurs - they can be dragons!

Do they like ninja turtles? They have something similar to a dollhouse.
