Build the walls of the fort with the backs of chairs.
Drape blankets over the backs of the chairs.
Add layers of blankets to the floor between the chairs.
Line the walls of the fort with pillows and cushions.
Drape a sheet across the chairs to create a roof. Secure by placing heavy books on the edges of the sheet.
Secure dowels and broomsticks between couch cushions. Tie a string across them.
Drape another sheet across the dowels to create a second level of the fort. Secure the sheets together with clothespins or binder clips.
Use more dowels or sticks to raise the roof of the fort.
Add string lights (secure with binder clips) and other electric lights to the walls and roof of the fort.
Add a TV, laptop, books, snacks or other sources of entertainment (optional).
Hide in your fort for the rest of the year.
