The Barbie Dream House is a dollhouse that is mentioned by Greg Heffley in the first book. Greg wanted this toy for Christmas, because he thought it would make a good fort for his toy soldiers. But his father Frank denied that, because he thought it wasn't a good toy for young boys, but his mother Susan thought it was a great idea, so the two started an argument. However, Frank won this time, telling him to start his wish list over and pick more "appropriate" toys for boys.
