Barbie Playhouse
I purchased this item for my 4 year old daughter. I also have an eighteen month old son. They both love playing in the tent and pretending together. However, it wasn't long before the door opening became ripped pretty badly. It was fairly easy to rip just by going in and out of the tent. The lack of durability of this item is really frustrating. The rip is un-repairable, so my children are left to play in a torn up tent. They still enjoy playing in it, but I would rethink purchasing this item if I knew how easily it could become ruined. ...

A landscape of tunnels and hiding dens can instantly beassembled in your yard or family room with this compact modular playstructure. One of the best features is the abundance of colorful balls(there are 50!). Pile them all into one cube and children canexperience the feel of a small-scale ball room like the ones incommercial play areas. When children tire of burrowing, crawling, andhiding, they can use the balls to shoot hoops into the built-in basket.The pop-up nylon play structure is easy to assemble, but be carefulwhile assembling--modules spring open quickly. The challenge is foldingit back into the carrying cases (no careless cramming--adults will haveto follow instructions carefully). Megaland works with other PlayHutstructures. The set includes one large hut with basket, one medium hut,one small block, two tunnels, two carrying bags, and 50balls. --Gail Hudson ... Read more

Hours of Fun!!
This is the most played with toy in our house. The tunnels and cubes give it limitless possibilities. The ball pit is the biggest hit with the kids and with us, also. The "door" to the ball pit zips shut to keep them all in. As with most items that have ball pit balls, there are not enough included but we added a box of 100 balls and it was perfect for the kids. We have children ranging in ages from 10 months to 10 years and they all play with this toy. The older kids enjoy shooting hoops with the balls and chasing the younger ones through the tunnels. The younger children seem to enjoy the ball pit and tunnels the best. Whenever anyone comes over to our house, this is the first toy they go to in the playroom! The best thing about it, though, is that we can easily pop it down for when we need to move it. We recently painted the playroom and it was the easiest thing to move in there. We have had other playhuts in the past and they all last a long time and through many children. Much better than plastic or inflatable models. Well worth the money for the use you will get from it.

Best Durable tent!
This tent is one of the most durable tents out there! My 2 year old boy loves it! I have bought many tents in the past and most just collapse. This one doesnt because it has anchors on the bottom and a very strong frame. It doesnt take up much room either! Advice: buy 2 boxes of balls because it comes with a very small amount. Another great thing about it isthat i can leave him there for up to 15 minutes without having to worry. Its very educational because it teaches kids organization. Mine is very adamant about keeping things where they bellong inside. Balls in ball room, nap area in another, and toys in the other.

Not Only for the 3-7 Ages
Just recieved my daughters Mega Tent this morning and had a hard time getting her out of it for bedtime! I have more balls on order and waiting to recieve, because it DOES need more to have the real "ball room" effect..50 doesn't cut it. My daughter is going to be 21 months and she's having a ball with this. I even took the tents and separted them into different rooms and one outside since it is too big for our livingroom put all together. And I attached them all together in a straight line so it WOULD fit one of the rooms we have and it worked out fine. I only wish that the two smaller tents had the plastic lining on the flooring like the biggest one does, so she couldn't crawl out from the bottom and get tangled in it when it tips over or the balls wouldn't escape if I put them in one of them. So much fun, I haven't been able to put it back in the bags they come with..so I don't know how hard it is to fold back up yet..but the instructions look easy enough. Thanks!

I am amazed
I was pretty sure this was what I wanted to get my daughter for her 2nd birthday, but I was totally amazed when I brought it home. It came in a relatively small box, and with out the balls it would fit into a box that is only 3 inches thick. This is very easy to assemble. I think it took me a total of 5 minutes, and there are a bunch of different configurations you can put it in. My daughter, husband and I can all fit, although going through the tunnels is a squeeze. We have a blast. One thing I recommend is getting another 100 balls. It adds to the fun!

My kids love it...
.. and my kids are not children, but ferrets! Many ferret owners have discussed with others the fun a ferret can have in a ball-pit, but since their claws will break them, people tend to use cardboard boxes with plastic eggs or ball-pit balls. No such issues with this toy! And of course, my neices are hideously jealous of it..

.. it is very easy to break down flat; looping it into the bags *feels* funny because it feels like you're going to break something, but eventually with enough pressure it twists instantly into the right shape to fit into the bags. Honestly I don't think there is any way for anything in it to break - I've had nine hyper animals climbing all over it nails and all and it's held up for months now; not to mention that at night, when the ferrets are tucked away in their cages, the cats decide it is now their toy and use as a staging ground to leap on one another. ...

Standing 7 feet tall, this authentic-looking teepee makes adramatic play landscape for children. The ceiling is 5 feet high, soyoung children can stand and maneuver with ease inside. Made of durablefire-resistant cotton canvas and sturdy hardwood poles, the teepee is madeto withstand rough-and-tumble play. Because it has such generousfloor space (72 inches in width), children can bring in small playhousefurniture or have outdoor sleepovers (when the weather is good, becausethe fabric isn't waterproof). And the cone-like structure is perfect for a summerfort. Families with a large playroom or a basement can set up this teepee as apermanent fixture. Assembly is easy, but adult supervision is requiredbecause of the size and weight of the materials. --Gail Hudson ... Read more

Plains Hideaway is great.
When I first looked at this tent, I thought about how much fun it might be for my grand daughter, then I considered the price. Well, it turns out it was well worth the money. All of my grandchildren and the neighborhood children love it. My grand daughter decided to bring it inside for awhile, set it up in her room and now she sleeps in it every night! It was a good choice.

Better than any plastic fort !
We bought the tepee because we were sick of looking at all the bright plastic toys in the house. We have three boys who love it, ranging in age from 3-9. Everytime someone under 12 enters our house they head for the tepee. It is always a conversation piece for the adults. My three year old "sneaks" in to take a break from his brothers and catch a nap. This has been one thing we haven't regretted. ... Read more

Very Pleased.
We love it.A 4 year old boy and a 6 year old girl.What a blessing.I dont have to pick up the couch cushions and sheets and blankets any more.I am the mother and I put it up by myself easily.Probally took about 15 minutes.I think its as sturdy as a tent can be.I was thinking of buying a playhouse,they are so expensive.With this they can have it inside too.

Not up to par
There is no doubt the castle is a superb hit (twin boys, age 4), who absolutely loved it. However, it is extremely difficult & frustrating to assemble. Assembly could be much easier, but the instructions are essentially useless, and I still believe the correct assortment of tent poles was not provided (the instructions say there are 3 types of tent poles; the correct number is 5 types, and the numbers of each type provided did not match the number of spaces for each type of pole). The sleeves for the tent poles are well hiddent, and it took a super sleuth to find them. Set plenty of time aside for assembly. ... Read more
