My SN son is nearly 14 and the size of a 10year old, every year we struggle for something to buy him for christmas. whilst out shopping last week , he climbed into a very small playhouse and sat in it on his own for ages , this is a real first.
So i though great could get him a larger type one for christmas , his own den.
The question now is where can i get one from , does anyone know where i can buy a large playhouse or pop up tent syle thing . Every where i have tried is for little people. This is the first time he has shown real intrest in something like this . Any ideas.
.

Woolworths had some spiderman ones-not huge but not tiny either. usual places like ELC and 'The Entertainer' might have some.

What about looking at pop up festival tents like this? They are meant to accommodate adults so would probably be a much better size for your son.

Thanks Marne, love the sheriff tent think the price is a bit to scary for me though. CTD (love the name) this might be just the thing i was looking for .Thanks.

How about this www.alltrampolines.com/trampoline-tents.asp if you have a trampoline and the space!

We have a pop up festival tent identical to the one linked by melmamof3. Only cost us £20 on amazon. My DS is only 5 but he just likes to sit in it quietly on his own reading his books. I can sit in it as an adult. They are quite good fun
