Features of the Grand Maison Dollhouse
The
Talking Auto-Lock Grand Maison is a spacious dollhouse with dimensions of 58 cm in height and 72 cm in width, designed for dynamic play. Equipped with an elevator and a talking entrance that includes an auto-lock feature, the entrance greets players with sound effects, featuring a doorbell, intercom buttons, and various audio cues for guests, food delivery, and cooking.
Reflecting contemporary living standards, the dollhouse includes upgraded appliances such as an auto-lock entrance, intercom monitor, delivery box, and a built-in dishwasher in the kitchen. Through these modern updates, it encourages children to think about how homes integrate functionality and technology in daily life.
Promoting Sustainability and Inclusivity
This dollhouse proudly holds the
Eco Toy certification, demonstrating a commitment to the environment. It incorporates eco-friendly packaging and materials, including certified forest paper—sourced from responsibly managed forests. The sound prompts in the dollhouse are designed not only for entertainment but also to instill eco-awareness in children. For instance, the sound prompts include messages like, “Please sort your garbage!”, and “Leave deliveries in the box!” to foster an environmentally conscious mindset during play.
Further enhancing this toy's inclusivity, feedback from visually impaired children was integrated into the design process, ensuring that the dollhouse can be enjoyed by all. Unique tactile features were added: recessed areas on dining tables to prevent small items from falling, textured surfaces to explore through touch, and playful sound notifications for door and elevator operations to create an engaging multi-sensory experience.

In an exciting partnership with Yamato Transport, the initial limited edition of the dollhouse will come with exclusive Yamato-themed accessories, including a miniature EV Walk-Through BOX, an absence notice, and a black cat toy.
