Miniature model houses designed as toys for children to play with dolls, complete with tiny furniture and rooms.
Compound of 'doll' and 'house,' with the plural 's' ending. Dollhouses emerged as toys in the 16th century Europe, initially as expensive crafted items for wealthy families before becoming mass-produced in the Industrial Era.
Dollhouses have been architectural training grounds for generations—many famous architects have credited childhood dollhouse play with inspiring their careers, as it teaches spatial reasoning and design thinking.
