play house

Ask any child to describe their dream play house. It does not involve cheap

Ask any child to describe their dream play house. It does not involve cheap eyesore plastic and a lifespan of a year. Why, it's fantastical with ornate wood detailing and a heart-shaped window, of course. Or maybe it has a little birdhouse perched atop or a built-in picnic table. No, wait...it's a mansion! Kids want something just as special in the yard as you do, something they'll cherish their entire childhood and beyond. Luckily, you don't have to hire an architect to build their pint-size abode — there are plenty to pick from at Amazon. That's right: The mega-retailer is delivering wooden play house kits right to your door. Some of the wood structures that caught our eye are available starting at $260, which is pretty impressive. And the more elaborate ones are fleeting, so snap them up while you can.

One five-star fan reported: "It came with super easy-to-follow instructions and went together very quickly!" Another added: "We love this playhouse! Our girls have pretty much moved in..."

One fan raved: "I bought this for my 4-year-old daughter and 8-year-old son. We have lots of kids in the neighborhood that like to come play. They like to use it as a cafe with the bbq and table connected. I put Twinkle lights inside (with a battery pack) and clip on butterflies from the dollar store. My son can play in it without having to crouch the whole time and my daughter can grow in it."

"I gave this as a gift to my grandchild and she loves it! It was assembled in just a few hours. Really cute," wrote a happy reviewer.

A five-star fan shared: "This is a very high quality product. It is absolutely adorable. My girls love it and play in it daily!!"
