Making Forts With Preschoolers- Ten Days of Delighting in Your Preschooler

Forts are easy. Grab blankets and something to throw them over. Clean up is pretty simple, too- fold the blankets, put them away.

When I was a kid, my brothers would write "fort mail" and deliver it to my fort mailbox. I loved it! They were quite a bit older than I was, so they were being kind to me, but it meant so much to my little self. That's easy to do, too, and preschoolers love fort mail, snacks delvered to their "door", and visits from mom.

Christian threw blankets over the couch and the ottoman. He was a little unhappy here because his blankets wouldn't stay put, so he learned some engineering lessons in the process.
