  Choose, if you like, to forego the hard plastic of the Fisher Price Barbie Playhouse and go with the soft material of the Barbie playhouses made by Dekker. Dekker playhouses are actually simple fold-up tents, so be careful not to tear the material when setting them up. Also caution any children that play in or around the playhouse not to be too rough with the tent, as they may rupture the material.
