The Starchitect In the Playroom

Crazy Forts

Pillows piled high. Desks and tables turned on their sides. Wrinkled sheets all over the floor. Chairs pushed together. No, we’re not talking about that second honeymoon you took to the Caribbean. (Those poor chambermaids never knew what hit them). We’re talking about your tyke’s bedroom after a strenuous round of fort-building. A tougher mom would have outlawed forts long ago, but you just don’t have the heart.

Luckily, you can be Good Cop all you want and still run a clean ship with Crazy Forts. This awesome fort-assembly kit consists of 44 sticks and 25 balls, but allows for infinite possibilities. From castles and igloos to rocket ships and tunnels, there is no end to the structures your little Mies van der Rohe can build.

And when it’s time to tear it down and start anew, guess who won’t be left holding the laundry bag?
