I don't know about you but when I was a kid I loved making dens/spaceships with my sister out of chairs and blankets. I was always so sad that I had to take down my secret spaceship at the end of the day. Now I have little Alex I have been looking for kids room inspiration on Pinterrest and have found these awesome Teepees that look so awesome I am sure any adult would be happy to have one of these up in the sitting room as a permanent feature and I would love for him to have a special 'No Adults' space.
Dens and den building are really important to encourage children's imagination and sense of self and are sadly child psychologists have said that imaginative play is sadly becoming less and less common in todays ipad/t.v culture where adults have less time to spend with their children. So go on put down the remote and build your kid a den :)
p.s A campfire like the one in the third picture is available from The Land Of Nod
