Buy at least 2 |
This is a great toy. So many toys are played with once and then never used again. Not this one. Its now August and when kids come over they love to play with it- most have never seen it. There is non-stop creativity. But you do need to buy at least 2 of the kits. We bought one for my son and another for my daughter so it is a shared toy for them. There are not enough pieces in one kit to make much. There is a 'floor' that comes with it, that helps to add some stability, but it is difficult for an adult to put the 'floor' in- and forget it when kids go in and out of the fort- the floor is all over the place. With two kits you have enough pieces to add stability at the base and still build up. I wish we bought a third!- but that is on the docket for this christmas- mainly to replace worn out parts.
It reminds me of giant tinker toys. Which is what makes it so much fun. We've had at least six kids in our forts. The orange pieces can break if the kids get too rough, but we've only lost one thus far.
I think there is one review that talks about the danger in using the poles as swords. Our kids have done this on a couple of occassions, but they have been sternly reprimanded and reminded that this is a building toy and it will be taken away if it is used as swords. As long as the parents are involved and monitoring the use in the first couple of months, everyone will have fun and stay safe. We no longer have issues with using the toy as swords. We drove home the point by hitting paper with the tubes. THe kids saw the paper rip and of course we said that could be their skin. ( A child would really have to whack HARD to draw blood in my opinion, but the dramatics helped get the point across)
I would highly recommend. |

Hours of Fun! |
|
Our 3yr old son LOVES his super fort! It does require an adult to help construct it for stability purposes and sometimes he has the most fun taking it back apart or playing with the poles as swords or pretend robot legs. The vinyl pieces come off really easily with his rough play so we are constantly having to "repair" his tunnel, house, etc. It's a minor inconvenience for how much he really loves this fort. Our 8 month old loves the fort too, however she's too rough and usually ends up pulling the whole structure down just by leaning on it. |

Wonderfully Creative Toy |
|
We bought this toy a year ago and the kids (5 1/2 and 3 1/2) still get excited when we pull it out. They have built all kinds of forts, airplanes, and castles with it, and rarely want help with their creations. The magnetic snap-together pieces make it easy for even the littlest to build. My mother-in-law, an educator for over 30 years, was so impressed with this toy that she has purchased ones for all the other grandkids and even her classroom. |

Cranium Fort was just what my 4 year old needed! |
|
My son is addicted to fort building... you know with chairs, blankets or anything he can find. When I saw this Cranium Super Fort product, I knew it was just what he needed. Cranium has made the styrofoam beans and interlocking balls so easy that a four year old can put it together by himself. He even knows how to clip on the nylon fabric so he can hide in the fort. Sometimes he still wants to extend the fort with other blankets and chairs, but overall you can make a pretty nice size fort, ship, space station or whatever else you can think up. It is also very compact and can be put away in an easily portable bag. We also bought the twisty tunnel to add to the fun of him climbing into his fort. Cranium is so smart! |

Get 2 sets!!! |
OMG! My kids can't stop playing with this set!! Just a word of advice, if you can afford it, get 2 sets. We were lucky to get 2 sets from Grandma for our girls, and they absolutely love this. Having 1 set would still be fun, but with 2 sets put together, we are able to make HUGE forts that multiple kids can actually play in! Believe it or not, they even want to add another set (Grandma, are you reading this? lol). The only negative is the foam noodles could be a little bit stronger and not bow after supporting a multi-story fort for a few days. But other than that, it's a perfect design and easy for kids (and adults) to snap together some totally fun structures! You won't go wrong with this product!
