The Fort Kit: Great gift for little builders

When my little boy opened this gift on Christmas morning, he didn’t realize how much he was going to love it.  It doesn’t look flashy, but don’t let that fool you.

I feel pretty good about a lot of ideas I’ve had over the years, but this one was brilliant.  My kids use this kit on a daily basis.  They are always building forts, tents, hide-outs, etc. This kit took their building possibilities to a new level.

clothespins

The fort kit is simple.  I ordered heavy duty clothespins and a strong set of various sized clamps.  These clamps are tough!  The kids can clamp blankets to bunk beds like no rope or rubber band ever could. It’s really helpful to have many different sizes.

Clamps

I put the clothespins and clamps in a toolbox so they can get carried all around the house and yard, ready for building projects galore!  You could add some flat sheets to the kit, but I just let my kids grab whatever blankets/sheets they need for their current project.

Happy building!
