Forget the kids: grown-ups will have a ball shopping for their dream home here. The store sells more than 100 types of dollhouse kits, ranging widely in price ($35–$1,500) and style (Edwardian to Muskoka-type cottages). For beginners, the Quickbuild Victorian Cottage Junior kit ($275) comes with a dozen painted and decorated pieces that can be easily assembled. After you buy the real estate, decorate: there are almost 500 different wallpapers, and you can even put in parquet flooring. Tiny details include fly swatters ($6).
