We're sure most kids would love to have a tank of their very own. What they desire to do with it would probably leave the neighbors a bit peeved, so we would suggest you go with an adequate alternative, the Big Willie tank playset plan.
This design offers 160ft² of total play play space, upper level lookout station and treads that you can crawl through. With this much interactivity, you kids may forget that they were also asking for enemy helicopters, aircraft or UFOs to defend the backyard against.
