title of Alfred hitchcock short movie with a dolls house

can someone please tell me the titile of this film. I am not completly sure if it is a Alfred Hitchcock movie but it has the same feel and intensity. As I remember it, This movie seemed to be a traditional typical family setting mum, dad, children (boy and girl). They were going about their typical daily lives. the boy and girl squabbling so the boy places a lollipop in the girls dolls house then later in the oven. The wife doing her chores suspects something unusual when she noticed acme symbols on all the grocery packets and kitchenware. The husband trys to take the car out of the garage but there was a solid stainless steel wall blocking. He calls the wife and then it becomes a full on panic as they try the front door but same stainless steel wall is blocking the front door, they check the windows. the house starts to get very hot and the sticky, i think was the colour green is oozing over the floor. Toward the end of the movie you realize that they were actually the people in the dolls house that looked exactly like the real people. its a bit confusing to try to explain. Thanx Mary

Probably the Child's Play episode from the British TV anthology series Hammer House of Mystery.

"Hammer House of Mystery and Suspense" Child's Play (1986)

Plot: A family awakens to find themselves trapped in their own home, all windows and
doors sealed by impenetrable walls.
