A modular house toy having, in combination:

• a plurality of flat-sided, three-dimensional, box-like modules that are shaped and sized to be stacked to simulate rooms in the structure of a toy house;
• said modules having corresponding sides that are open, to be arranged to form an open side of the toy house for access to the interiors of the rooms;
• and
• said modules comprising stiff, flat substrate panels that are shaped and joined together to form simulated walls, ceilings and floors of a plurality of simulated rooms, and coverings for at least exterior surfaces of said substrate panels and some interior surfaces thereof, said coverings being composed of felt and secured to said panels as permanent components of the modules, whereby the coverings for the exterior surfaces serve to position the modules in the stacked structure.

For use in a modular house toy with furnishing accessories having felt surfaces, a flat-sided, three dimensional box-like module for simulating a room in a modular toy house, comprising:

• a plurality of stiff, flat substrate panels that are shaped and joined together to form simulated walls and floor of a simulated room that is open on one side for access to the interior of the module;
• felt coverings secured to exterior surfaces of said module for positioning the module against other room modules having felt exterior surfaces;
• and
• additional felt coverings secured to interior surfaces of said module for simulating interior decoration of the simulated room and for engaging the felt surfaces of the furnishing accessories to position the same in the simulated room.
