Summary:
From wagons to whips, this escalates quickly.
This $69 play vacuum.
That better have real suction power if it's nearly $70. (It doesn't though. Just a "vacuum sound.") If your kid won't actually be cleaning with it then they can just get a $23 Dirt Devil toy.

This $249 pedal roadster.
A retro ride for your kid. They can get a workout with the pedals and look classy doing so, but they can get the same workout with this $73 version.

This $250 teepee.
This is problematic for a number of reasons, tbh. You could just as easily make a more... culturally appropriate... space with some blankets and chairs or something – or a get a $30 play tent.

This $259 washer and dryer set.
Unless your child will be doing their own laundry, why spend this much on a play thing? It doesn't even come with the iron or ironing board. You have to spend more for that.
