The most common question we hear from parents in Pune, Mumbai and Bengaluru is not about paint or assembly. It is: where would it even go?
Fair question. Indian apartments are not famous for spare floor. But a life-size playhouse needs less room than most people picture — and the right corner does more for daily play than a whole toy cupboard.
The 3×3 rule
Stand in your child's room and look for a 3×3 ft square — roughly one large floor tile, or the footprint of a chair. If you can point at that, a small DUDUK house stands there. The Cubby House lives its whole life in that corner: door, windows, chimney, flower pots and all.
Corners are better than centres
A playhouse against a wall or in a corner feels like a real room-within-a-room — children like a den, not a display. Corners also keep walkways clear, which matters more for whether the house survives the month than any spec does.
If you have a little more room
A medium house wants about 4×4 ft and repays it: room to move, decorate, and invite a friend inside. The Tree House adds a life-size tree with a working bookshelf — many families park the bedtime books there and let the house become the reading corner.
The part nobody expects
Because every DUDUK is paintable, the house does not compete with your home — it slowly becomes part of it. Families paint them to match the room, write the child's name over the door, and swap the decor as phases change. Have a look at real homes on our Stories page — most of them are ordinary flats, not villas.
