Indoor playhouses and tents
While the traditional view of playhouses and play tents for kids might be a treehouse or a miniature outdoor castle, we have plenty of brilliant houses and children's play tents suitable for the indoors, too. These playhouses are often cheaper than the ones built for outside, as they don’t have to be waterproof or wind resistant.That’s not to say that these playhouses and tents for kids lack style, pizazz or quality. There are dozens of different designs to pick from. Some of them are fully enclosed little fortresses of fun, complete with bricks painted onto the fabric - just check out deAO Toys' offerings if you want to see what we mean! Tiny balustrades and parapets complete the look, and these castles proudly fly a pennant from its top.
Many of these fabric indoor tents are in fact kids pop up play tents. In other words they have collapsible frames made from thin tubes of metal or fibreglass and can be squashed down at any time without breaking the frame. Then, when it’s time to play again, they’ll bounce back up to their full size in no time! Kids pop up play tents are brilliant for busy households, because they can be stored in a storage closet, garage or even an understairs cupboard!
