Instructions for
Real Good Toys'
My Dreamhouse Add
This kit will add an additional level to your 'My Dreamhouse' dollhouse. The ideal time to include this Add A Room in
your build is while you are building the 'My Dreamhouse' dollhouse, but you can also add this to the completed dollhouse
with some dis-assembly.
Before you begin -
You have already opened the box and
see all the parts organized and tidy. For the moment, keep
them that way. There are important things to do before you
open your glue bottle.
Choose your paint. Semi-gloss interior latex paint is recom-
mended for all dollhouses. If you are building this Add A
Room afterward and the original paint choices are unknown,
your paint store may be able to scan a part of the dollhouse
for color matching.
Prepare your space
:
This kit will spread out over a large
area while it is being built. You will need a full-sized table
for organization and painting, and enough cardboard, paper,
or plastic to protect it from paint.
A snap-lid box will keep your tools and supplies handy
between building sessions.

Measure and identify the parts
The kit is organized in the box to protect the parts, and the
Parts List is in the same order. As you measure and identify
the parts, label them with sticky notes using the names from
the parts list, and check them off the parts list so you know
you have everything. Taking the time now to identify and
organize the parts also makes their names familiar so you will
understand what the instructions intend as you read ahead.
• Plan ahead so you know where you are going
• Read ahead so you know how to get there
• Paint ahead so the parts will be ready when you need them
