Camping Play Quilt

If you happen to run into Kerri's family at one of the music festivals they love to attend, feel free to warm up by their fire or dip your toes into their lake. And, who knows, her son might be nice enough to make you some s'mores.


 
 

As we mentioned, Kerri and her family attend a lot of outdoor events in the spring and summer, especially music festivals. It's good family fun, but sometimes younger kids can get a bit antsy - enter her awesome play quilt. It makes a comfy place for the family to hunker down for a festival and also provides opportunities for interactive play for her son. In addition to the clever water and shore, she included a small tent with sleeping bags for her son's action figures, logs around a campfire and even ingredients for s'mores featuring roast knitted marshmallows. Brilliant!

Kerri - this knocks our socks off! Thanks for sharing it on Ohdeedoh!

Being a Grandmother of six little ones with ages that range from 5 years to 1 year this looks like great fun. Little hands need something to do, little minds need to play pretend and when they get tired what a great place to nap.

Brilliant! I can see taking this out during the wintertime, too, for some pretend camping.

I'm in love with this blanket. I really think my kids need one. And maybe a niece or nephews as well.
