We built a tent last night in the living room using the couch and some chairs with sheets and blankets. Once we tried a few designs I have to admit our final design was pretty good. We moved the TV over and we had our pizza supper in the tent as we watched cartoons. Noah had a blast.
It was a fun way to spend the night and beat the heat outside. We put all of our pillows and blankets down and just hung out for the night and then we even slept in the tent (until about 1:00 and then he decided the bed might be better!).
Sometimes the simple things can be fun and kids love it. I actually had a pretty good time too once we got settled. We even had a wild cat from the jungle that kept attacking our tent from the top and crashing into us! We had to finally lock her up for a while! It was exciting stuff.
We may get back in the tent tonight, but we haven’t decided yet. He wanted to think about it! We used the back of the couch and draped sheets over to the top of chairs and used heavy books to hold down the sheets. It was easy and fun.
If you get a chance build a tent and hang out; it’s better than sweating in the heat and being exhausted when you come in for the night!
