SuperFort
posted in General |If you’re keeping score, the superfort is a totally awesome present for a nine year old who spend most of her seventh and eighth year destroying the house and salvaging sheets, blankets, furniture and cushions for her very own fort. It’s even pretty cool for a 36 year old. 
This present was out of its box and wrapper in less time than it takes to say “Slaves! Make me a pyramid!” There was a veritable flurry of creation as one construct after another appeared. And even so, as Miss B built, her younger sister (Toddler K) would laugh with glee at this new house within a house. In fact, I put six of the flexible parts together into a tetrahedron (that’s 1d4 for those of you only slightly less geeky than me), set it on the floor, and Toddler K ran to it and leaped into it so that she could experience the power of the pyramid for herself.
It’s significant that Playfair toys, Amazon.com and Walmart.com are each out of this thing the weeks after Christmas.
