Play Tent — $1,495
You wouldn’t want your child playing in a regular old backyard tent now would you? That would be just barbaric. Instead, invest in this hand-painted teepee — an exclusive for Barney’s. It was designed by film director Baz Luhrmann ("Moulin Rouge," "The Great Gatsby") and his wife, costume designer Catherine Martin. Keep in mind, 25 percent of the tents' sales goes to the charity Room to Read. So you can feel good about your kid’s very expensive set of sticks and canvas.

Tudor Playhouse — $76,000
Yes, you could buy a 3-bedroom home in Louisiana, a 4-bedroom house in Atlanta, or a 3-bedroom house in Myrtle Beach for $76,000 (or less). But why would you want to do that when you could spend the same amount on a playhouse for your child? La Petite Maison will create a stately tudor, a “charming cottage,” or a “magnificent Mediterranean villa,” which could be designed to include a media room, library or a child-sized kitchen.
