crazy forts
Just when you thought a kid's world was powered exclusively by batteries. Crazy Forts uses geometrically precise balls and sticks to create a multitude of play fort possibilities that you simply throw a sheet over.

Ooh, that reminds me of Quadro (www.quadro.de). I used to build huge castles with that when I was younger :)

Man I would have loved this growing up.

I cant imagine any child being disappointed!! As a parent, I'm glad they are no longer pulling the couch apart to make their forts. I dont regret making this purchase at all!!

How cool would it be as a kid if your parent just installed jumbo eye bolts at various places around your room. You could redesign a fort daily. Just sayin.

Does anyone know if I can get this in Belgium? None of the resellers on the Crazy Forts site will ship to Europe (grrr)
