It's funny, I think toys and playscapes in yards *increase* property value in certain neighborhoods. When we were looking for a house, we were be turned off by neighborhoods that didn't have any, because it suggested that there are no little kids around for ours to hang out with. Seeing a tricycle in front of a garage was exactly what we wanted to see.
