These look so cool. Shame is I can’t find anywhere in the UK which sells them.

This is great. My daughter is almost 3 and loves playing in her own “forts” or “tents”, but I agree with the lack of creativity with blankets for younger kids. Not to mention the amount of clothes pins and such that I am trying to use to connect everything. I can totally see that she would be able to figure this after playing with it a couple of times.

This is awesome! This looks even better than the Fortamajig which I had been drooling over ever since your review…

Great review. I think I need to get these. Blanket forts are a bit more work with the cleaning and refolding.

We haven't done a fort since this winter. I think it's time for another one.

The colors!! Oh, I want these. My oldest is 2.5 and my youngest is still a baby, but I have visions of the two of them cavorting around underneath homemade tents, plotting as sisters do.

Ok, honestly? I want them for me. :) We have a big set of Playhut pop-up tents that I got a thriftstore for an amazing price, but the problem is that I am a wee bit too big to get inside with my kid.

What a cool solution to that problem.

Oh, and I totally think that your daughter's looks of sheer delight completely accentuate how cool this product is.

I wish I had them both. I KNOW my boys (age 2.5 and, ahem, 29) would love playing together in them both. I do sew, though, and may try to improvise something with velcro and maybe some thrift store bedsheets. Maybe not as functional or cool as this version, but (depending on how much $$ I would have to spend on velcro) would maybe be in my price range.

Cool toy, and great review. Your daughter is a pretty cute and looks like she is having a lot of fun.
