Secret Meadow Shepherds Hut

£85.00

Award Winning
Entirely Plastic-Free

This pull-along shepherd's hut is home to Baby Boo, Mum Mabel, and Dad Otto—three mice who've borrowed everyday objects and repurposed them brilliantly. A teacup becomes a shower, thread spools turn into chairs, a sardine tin makes a cosy cot, and a pimento tin serves as the stove.

Winner of Gold at the Junior Design Awards 2022, this award-winning set features removable roof and wheels for versatile play. Part of Tender Leaf's Merrywood Tales collection.

What's included:

Shepherd's hut with removable roof
3 wooden mouse dolls with printed names
11 furniture and accessory pieces
Sustainable rubberwood with non-toxic water-based paints

Suitable for children aged 3 years and up

Why we like it

The ingenuity of the mouse family's repurposed items sparks exactly the kind of imaginative thinking we like. Tender Leaf's Gold award at the Junior Design Awards 2022 recognised what makes this special: the combination of clever design, beautiful execution, and genuine play value that goes beyond the traditional dollhouse format.
