Rosie Hippo Log Cabin Review and Giveaway
September 7, 2009 by Tracy
Filed under Product Giveaways, Product Reviews
The Rosie Hippo Log Cabin is a modern version of what many of us knew as lincoln logs when we were kids. Rosie Hippo is known as a leading provider of safe products for kids that are also “Earth Friendly”. Their motto is “Unique, Natural, Organic, Hand-crafted”. You know when you buy a Rosie Hippo product you are helping preserve the earth as well.
Made of wood harvested from sustainable forests, the Rosie Hippo Log Cabin comes in a nice drawstring bag that helps you keep the many pieces of the set gathered together between uses. The wood pieces of the set are thin and light, but also generally sturdy so they don’t break easily, even with aggressive kid use. We did have one of the smaller pieces chip, but have had no other issues. There are pieces of varying lengths, with three standard length logs for construction. This enables you to build log cabins of different shapes, sizes, and styles.
You also get flat pieces and roofing pieces to give your log cabin a completed and polished finish. There are enough logs that you can build either one huge cabin or a couple smaller ones side by side. One suggestion for the company is to include some directions for constructions to assist parents helping their kids build. The product is recommended for ages 3 and up. While we were able to come up with ways to construct, perhaps a guide with models to follow would be nice. Our 5 year old enjoys blocks with directions to follow. Otherwise, the Rosie Hippo Log Cabin is a great, fun family product that you can buy for $20.00.

I would like to win the Rosie Hippo Log Cabin set because my kids love to build anything and everything.
I used to love building things with my old log cabin set! And how great my little ones can enjoy it now too.
My 3 year old is just now learning how to build, I think this would be a great homeschool project.
Looks like something that would be great for a little guy to build things with.

I like the rustic feel. Thank you
We’d like our daughter to have as many natural toys as possible – wooden ones, play silks, etc. So she can use her imagination and we don’t have tons of plastic junk in the house!
