NGAkids DUTCH DOLLHOUSE INTERACTIVE
In Holland during the 17th and 18th centuries, the "poppenhuis" was an adult diversion, but our online DOLLHOUSE is fun for kids of all ages. Paintings by well-known artists such as Pieter de Hooch, Gerard ter Borch, Jan Steen, and Johannes Vermeer spring to life as you mix and match colorful characters, create decorative objects, and explore the kitchen, living quarters, artist's studio, and courtyard of this make-believe Dutch house.
DOLLHOUSE requires Shockwave Player. A high-speed Internet connection or preloading prior to play is recommended. With a cable or DSL connection, the interactive will open in seconds, but the download may take up to 15 minutes over a modem. If your Internet connection is slow you still can play. Just preload the game while you're doing something else, then come back to the Web page after the program has transferred to your computer. The dollhouse will stay open until you close your browser window or shut down the computer.
