I love it when kids get creative outside and make play spaces that they entertain themselves in for many hours. Its such a blessing to have the space and freedom for them to do that. We played covered wagons too. We just laid out old boards to represent the size of ma and pas wagon then put the basic things inside that Laura mentions and old sheets over it but i thought about making it to last a bit longer , maybe big tomato stakes in the ground , i have old poly pipe and id use that to make an arch between them. Then the tarp over it . I think i have so much fun outside too. Haha . Great job everyone and happy playing ❤❤
Love this! Such a fun idea. Outdoor areas are so good for all of us. Love the Battle shack! And nothing tops it off like a good hot chocolate! Looks like a great day!
This is fun. Reminds me of when my boys were young. One Christmas I bought them The Boys Own Handbook and I think they lived that book. It's still a great resource book. Somewhere in this house I have a book on how to make all sorts of "camps" . I'll have to see if I can find it.
@@WifetoJohn Hi Brooke! It was written by Daniel Beard. I got the title wrong, it is titled The American Boy's Handy Book. All his books are quite fun for adventurers. The one for the girls (written by his wife) wasn't as good.
I love the outdoors for kids and this is a great idea. Mine love digging too😂 especially when it's muddy.
Playing in mud is a favorite here too. 😊 Thanks for visiting!

I know, I like to create with them too! Those are good ideas about the wagon. ❤️

Thank you! 🥰 I like your outdoor kitchen, one day I would like one. It's gets so hot inside during the summer.
@@WifetoJohn currently it is our only kitchen. But I love it too. I almost don't want to move it indoors.

I'll have to find that book, thanks for the recommendation. 🥰 I love seeing what kids come up with when they're playing.
Jane, I looked up The Boy's Own Handbook, is it by, Cecil H. Bullivant?
