  • What was this playset??

    This toy was a brown plastic shoe with a red roof. The whole shoe could be opened up (I think it was in the theme of 'There was an old woman who lived in a shoe, had so many children, didn't know what to do...' etc) to reveal either a house or a schoolroom inside. It was like a giant boot and came with people and furniture. Not sure if it was Fisher Price. The boot even had a lace on it that could be tied. Any info would be appreciated!

            Thanks for all of your replies! No, that shoe in the photo isn't the one...the one in my head may have been a later edition of it tho...and yes, now I think it may have been Playskool, not Fisher Price after all. The boot I remember was brown, plastic, red roof...I think it had a door in the toe and windows...oh my gosh, another flashback. Don't you love them! Hehe.

              Yeah Gnarly boy, I'm a hoarder too....cannot part with any of my 80s childhood junk, hehe. Way too sentimental. I only wish I had a loft or an attic or sumthin....all my stuff is jammed in the top of a cupboard.

              Hey, anyone remember the Kenner Tree House playset? Big green tree-dome thing that popped up and had a house inside with a lift that moved people up and down the tree trunk? Hehe, good times.

                I think the door in the toe may have actually flipped outwards into stairs?? I'm on a roll here. The playset didn't have wheels either. Hmmm, I can feel another sleepless night coming on.

                    This is the only other one i found...it has a red roof...the toe opens up to where you can put little people in it and it laces...(laces are missing)
                    This one is made by Fisher Price (also it came with the little old lady, a b&w dog, one mean faced kid, and a couple of other little ppl

                      You're getting warmer....but that's not it. That looks much similar though to what I'm thinking of; maybe the one I'm thinking of did have wheels. Thanks for the pic and your help. The boot I remember was more early-mid 80s.

                            Did any one have The Big Yellow Teapot? Same kind of thing as the boot.
