Cheerful Build a tent in your Garden

Looking for an activity to keep your children engaged for the summer Holidays?

Tents and 'Making Home' is brilliant

Take a kitchen table outside and drape a double bed sheet over the top ... guide if wanted by suggesting a few ideas on what to use to make it comfortable .. and explain boudaries so hopefully best cushions aren't seconded!!

Two Chairs also make a good frame... stand them apart from each other and tie the sheet from one to the other.

traditional pop-up and 'wendy' house frames are also great backup shelter makers ..


***************************

If anyone has other ideas please feel free to add on ..

I remember 'camping out' overnight, with a clothes horse over me on the settee and a table cloth over the top!
