Make the perfect Play Fort

"Everything is better in a fort! Herman learned just how fun even ordinary things feel when you make your own special place to play. Have you ever made a play fort before? Now’s your chance to learn how!" - Oscar

How to play:

Pick a spot to make your fort. This can be a corner of a room you like, a couch, a chair, or even just an area with enough space to build
Now that you have the perfect spot, you’ll need some walls. Use some blankets to create a tent. You can drape them over furniture, use thumbtacks or hooks in the wall, whatever will give you a nice curtained off space. Couch cushions also work really well.
Next, put some blankets on the ground the make it nice and soft
Now fill your fort with more pillows and blankets so you can get nice and comfy
Add some twinkle lights, fake candles, or lamps to make sure you can see, but also make it more magical.
Decorate with anything you love.
Bring in some books, games, and toys to play with
Start having fun!

You can be as creative as you want. This is your special place to hide away for a few hours and let your imagination run wild. Need some ideas? Here are pictures of our what we did in our fort:

There is no wrong way to make a fort. As long as you love it, your fort is perfect. While you’re in your fort you can:

Read a book or comic
Read a story to your family members
Make up your own story. Maybe even write it down
Play board games
Play video games with a friend
Have your toys go on an adventure.
Eat your favorite snacks
