Stay Out
Some of my most fond memories when I was a kid was when I tucked myself away in a closet, in a box, under a desk or a counter. If I had to put it into words, it was my own little world. A space I was less like to encounter another adult. Perfect size just for me and a few toys.
Maybe thats why they build forts?
Exactly!! It is like going someplace fun inside the boredom of your own home. My little brother used to build mazes out of the couch cushens and sheets. The hardest part was not knocking them down while crawling through, but also kindof fun having them colapse on top of us. The cat would give it a walkthrough as well. If you have enough material, make mazes!!
