After hours upon hours of playing with all of the new Christmas toys, Grayson was ready to pull out one of his favorites that is kept at Neenie's house---his giraffe tent. I bought it a couple of years ago to put out in the yard for some extra shade during his summer visit. He loves it. He now has a Thomas Train tent to play in at his house. The tradition seems to be, "let's see how long Neenie (or mommy or daddy, etc.) will sit inside the tent with me." He gets you inside and then zips up the "door" so you can't get out!!! Lots of fun.....I have memories of "building" tents when I was younger. But, ours weren't ready-made. We layered blankets and sheets over card tables or chairs, using wooden clothespins to keep the "walls" in place. We would gather up our favorite toys at the time and spend hours inside playing. There must be something special about tents........
