This is a drop-in fort-building op en house intended \;for children ages 3-10. All children must be accom panied by a caregiver.
\nWith a few simple materials you ca n create a structure your little one can safely get lost in! This fort bui lding workshop led by Kaija Marshall goes into the mechanics of PVC pipes (inputs\, outputs\, and angles) and the basic structures needed to support fabrics and create a cozy hideaway. We&rsquo\;ll also dive into the archi tecture behind pretend play and how to encourage your child to find joy in creating their own space. Successful pretend play requires imagination\, understanding\, and feeling safe and secure in the real world.
