Kids playing in their garden fort

Ummmm… can I be a kid again?! 😍

Like any parent, I can’t tell you how much I love when my kiddos feels like transforming my entire living room into their own personal fort. I really love how they take all the clean blankets and sheets out of the linen closet and use them to construct said fort. Who doesn’t want to do more laundry? 😉

Luckily, we’ve come across a NEW kind of fort that not only looks better than blankets and sheets draped all over our living room furniture, but it’s also a way for kiddos to get outside where they can enjoy the beautiful weather! 🙌

    I love this! I am pretty sure it can be made much cheaper with some PVC pipe though. Either way the kids would have a blast. 😀
