#4. The Locomotive
A garden playhouse that doubles as a train locomotive and which is completely made of wood? Yes, please. Fun for both kids and adults, this little gem of your architectural imagination will send you both on fast adventures.

Even better, why don’t you make it a joint project and have your child and some more little ones from the block help you paint it? They will have the time of their lives, like a page straight out of Tom Sawyer and the famous fence-painting incident. Just don’t let them slack like Tom did!
There are many cool garden playhouse ideas out there, but none quite like these. Just a quick tip – remember to ask your little one what he or she would like. In the end, they will be the ones spending their time in it!
