Fabulous Forts

It's no secret that children love forts. 



My daughter begs to make forts out of blankets and chairs.  And when all else fails, I will sometimes find her putting a blanket over a small table and hiding under there to play! 



Kids love having a hideaway spot to go to!



So why not have a bit more fun and let your children have a permenant fort, in their bedroom or playroom!  Here are a few great ways to let your kids have a fun fort in their room:

Behind this great bookcase is a small hideaway where that little bookworm of yours can hide away and read all afternoon!

Using old sheets, blankets or fabric, you can achieve this throw-together look simply.  But by using rope to secure it to the ceiling, you can make it a semi-permanent feature in a playroom.

If your little princess doesn't want a "fort", you can still give her a sense of a hideaway spot by using a pretty pink canopy in her room!

Do your kids have a special hideaway spot they can go to?
