LEGO Tree House
3,036-piece LEGO® Ideas 21318 Tree House. It features a landscape base and 3 LEGO tree house cabins—a main bedroom, bathroom and kids’ room. The tree has interchangeable sets of green summer leaf elements and yellow and brown fall leaf elements—these and various plant elements on the base are all made from sustainable-plant-based polyethylene plastic. ($200)
Leaf Pick-Up Mitts
These little rake like devices fit over your hands and make it easy to pick up leaves.
