cubbyhole
A cubby-hole, cubby-house or cubby is a small, snug place, which may be considered and used as a place of safety for children. This may be constructed by the children themselves and used as a place of play. Autistic children are especially fond of such places.
Children may have a small shed, play-house or tent which they use as a cubby-house. Children might build their own in various places in the house or garden, or have a pre-fabricated cubby. An Australian fictional treatment of the quest for the perfect cubby can be found in Ursula Dubosarsky's "The Cubby House", illustrated by Mitch Vane.〔(The Cubby House: Aussie Nibbles )〕
==Etymology==
Possibly from the term "cub" in old English related to "stall, pen, cattle shed, coop, hutch".〔(Origin of English word CUBBYHOLE )〕 "Cubby-hole" is sometimes written as one word (''cubbyhole'').
