Many weeks ago World of Camping kindly offered to send us over one of their kids Animal play tents and a useful "Packaway rucksack". When the products arrived it was far too cold outside to be puttng up tents or even playing out. So..: I waited and waited and finally the sun came out, bang in the middle of the Easter holidays too.
These fun tents are designed for the younger child or toddler as they are fairly small in size but offer enough space for 2 toddlers to sit inside. They come with 3 animal choices and colours and fold down really small for very easy storage.
I have actually never had to put a tent up in my life so it's a good job it's easy but I still needed a little help inserting poles. Ryan on the other hand regularly goes camping with scouts and therefore seemed to know what to do better than me.
There are two large poles, each of which contains 3 interconnecting poles which just need clicking together. Then these poles just fit into the holes on the tent cover. It takes all of five minutes to put it up.
Once up it is quite sturdy in a gentle breeze and it gives little ones somewhere to sit out of the sun.
The tent has two entrances to get in and out or even just peep out of.
It is designed as a playtent rather than a tent to sleep in. It's good for gardens and the beach or even to take away on a camping trip so kids have their own place to play. Its dimensions when assembled are 115 x 115 x 84 cm. I love how it folds away really quickly into a small bag, I think I will be a professional at putting this up and down once Summer is over.
Now for the price - it's just £9.99 per tent and they can be purchased here.
These Packaway rucksacks really come in handy for trips and holidays.
They are very lightweight and fold down really small. They seem a good option for mums like myself to just put a few personal bits inside when going on short walks or trips. I alrwady have enough kids bags to cart around without the addition of a huge bag for myself too. They come in a choice of 3 colours and cost just £5.99 each. See this Page for more details.
