HOWTO make a cardboard playhouse

It is easiest to start with a large cardboard box such as a refrigerator or other large appliance. I called my local appliance store and had them save me a box.

If you can't find one large enough you can certainly construct one out of smaller boxes, it will just take more time to piece it together.
