Developmental Value

From building forts in the forest to covering the living room with sheets, kids have naturally looked for a place of their own. Having a private quiet space blocks out the noise and stimulation that can stress everyone out. If provides a safe, personal space for repose.

Learning to dream and imagination is not something all adults can do easily. The skill starts in childhood and private places like tents or forts allow imaginations to soar. Perhaps they are in a cave, a fortress, a castle, or a seaside cottage. Imaginative fantasy contributes to the development of the mind and the ability to dream and project into the future.

Play tents may be a quiet place for reading, puzzles or building blocks, but often they are an instrument of physical play. Tents often are part of the social play which includes running, chase, hide and seek, crawling or just giggling on their backs. In social play, away from screens, children learn to interact, negotiate, and work through good and bad experiences together. They learn to give and take and behave well with others.
