How to Do the Quest
- 1
Sketch a tiny floor plan with a doorway, reading nook, and one clear exit before building.
- 2
Use stable furniture already in place and drape blankets without climbing or stacking heavy items.

Build one section at a time, checking that everyone can enter and leave easily.
- 4
Add a paper welcome sign and choose one quiet fort activity such as reading or storytelling.
- 5
Take down the fort together by folding each blanket and returning furniture to its original place.
Quest Challenge
Can the fort include a cozy nook while keeping every exit clear and easy to use?
Pro Tip
A great fort is one everyone can get in and out of independently, not the tallest or most complicated design.
