Today’s kids are quite the lucky bunch – not only are they more tech savvy than any other generation before, but they’ve got some awesome parents who are die hard to instill a little bit of modernism into them as well. Designed by San Franciso based environmentalist Gitane Royce, the Circle House and Wedge House are the latest eco-friendly additions to the Modern Playhouse series. Made by a local California craftsman with FSC certified domestic lumber and apple-ply wood, each playhouse is easily constructible and comes equipped with 5-6 preassembled panels, hardware and tools. A great way to inspire your tots’ imaginations, this new angular abode could also be the key to one day getting them to espouse the virtues of Le Corbusier instead of the next Lady Gaga.

Fans of prefab design can now pass their affinity on to their children via Modern Cabana‘s newest addition to their collection of modern living spaces — the KIDDO Cabana. Dubbed the “ultimate choose-your-own-adventure” dwelling space, kids will adore turning the blank canvas of the KIDDO into their own unique playhouse. KIDDO is made in San Francisco with FSC-certified wood harvested from sustainably managed forests in the United States, no-VOC paints and glues, and natural tree oil stains. The interior boasts an array of kid enticing features you have to see! Visit Inhabitots to peek inside.
