We received our Explorer Kit very quickly. Have it to my 4 y.o. yesterday during his bday party and as soon as I started pulling it out ALL of the kids were running over to get involved. Kinda old school and too see a handful of 4-7 year olds playing in a fort instead of modern day toys with all the light, sirens and moving parts for my heart. I had five little foremen telling me how it should be built and after a quick demonstration I let them take it on... So awesome to watch the thinking and creativity go into building a fort. Day 1 and it's easily my favorite gift. More importantly, my little boy is ready to start a new building today.

With two energetic granddaughters (10 and 7 yrs) we were looking for a sustainable, collaborative building kit for the whole family. Make-a-Fort has been a brilliant find. We've had elaborate dens, forts, homes for their cat, a jewellery shop with secret tunnel, and most recently an enormous “Chief Dancing Examiners Desk”, at which they sat completing self-made Certificates of Achievements for their ancient grandparents' dancing efforts (to Mama Mia songs).

We were very happy with this product. It was purchased for our grandsons for Christmas. I helped create our first "fort" with my son and daughter-in-law by modifying a design that we saw online so that it fit into the space we had. Our fort had several entrances, 2 towers and a room with a ceiling towards the back that even I could sit in. It was quick and easy to assemble once you got the hang of it. The kids loved the result and we are all looking forward to seeing what they can build with it.

My kids are very much into the technology and i wanted to get them away from this. i saw this and instantly i knew this was the thing that might be able to draw their eyes away from the screen. Its perfect. they love helping build it and setting their cushions and lights up in it and also they love colouring it in. it has ticked all of the boxes. was worried about the strength and how it would hold up. the cats jumped on it and it still remained in tact! i had one little query when the goods arrived but that was resolved immediately. cannot thank the customer services enough for the quick response and resolution
