when mine were little I could not afford
a play house and there were no good
secondhand buys around.I bought mine
a two man tent,they loved it and it proved
to be very popular,loads of room inside
and they could stand up in it,it became
a house,wigwam,fort even a ball pool
plus all the other out doors toys used to
fit inside when not in use.It only cost
£9.99 in somerfields and it stood up
to all weathers.more popular than anything
else we ever bought

There is a deal on at Argos, playhouse, slide and sand table for about £68
Plus they are selling the Tulip playhouse in Toys R us at £59.99, £20 off
I want to get one for my toddler too- he loves them, but can't justify spending that sort of money outside of a birthday- so am selling off all his 'big' toys he doesn't play with to replace it with a playhouse- maybe you culd do something like this too to reduce the cost?

If you can stretch to it I would buy a small wooden one like this http://www.waltons.co.uk/playhouses-and-outdoor-toys/playhouses/waltons-snug-playhouse-4x4 rather than a plastic one as generally the wood ones tend to be taller and your child will be able to stand up in it longer than a plastic one.

I agree with Rosekitten my kids have a 2 storey playhouse which they use often, however when we put a tent up in the garden they go mad & love it. Last summer we left a cheap 3 man tent up all summer & after a few weeks of rain I thought it would be soaking inside, but it was adry as anything which goes to prove that you don't have to buy a really expensive one. Also you can take it down if you have people over for a bbq or during the winter when it probably won't get used much.

They delivered and erected it for the price quoted.
