Disclosure: I am a blog ambassador for Lakeshore and am compensated for my work. I received the product free of charge, but as always, all my thoughts and opinions are 100% mine.
Winter is coming, which means more time spent indoors at our house! I’m always trying to come up with ways to keep my kids busy, that don’t involve screens. I’m so excited to share with you the Ultimate Fort Builder! This would make a wonderful gift this holiday season. Make sure to read to the end because I’m sharing an exclusive coupon! Also, don’t miss the Lakeshore Gift Card giveaway at the end!
Lakeshore Learning has designed the BEST fort building kit for kids. I can honestly say it’s our favorite one we’ve tried. We have had two other fort building kits in the past, and this one is far better!
Here’s why the Ultimate Fort Builder rocks:
- it’s very sturdy! Once you put it together, it won’t fall apart in two seconds
- they give you a guide that you can follow to make five different designs
- you can also use your own creativity to make a fort
- it’s so easy to snap the poles and connectors together (in the past, our other kit needed an adult and that was still hard for me to maneuver!)
- the pieces fit all in one box, so it’s easy to store
My three boys loved it! It was so fun to see them work together to build different forts. We’ve had our latest fort in our living room for a few days because they like to play in there together.
Even toddlers have fun with this fort! The boys’ cousin came over and helped put together a fort. She loved it!!
The manual shows step-by-step instructions for five designs: castle, house, arch, igloo, and a rocket. They also have pictures of 8 more designs to try. This kit comes with 45 poles and 25 connectors.
One thing to keep in mind is you do need to make sure the connectors are facing a certain way to make the designs in the manual. There are arrows pointing to a center hole. That hole needs to face straight up. Once you are familiar with this, it will be easy to figure out.
Once you are done building the frame, you can cover the fort with a sheet or light blanket.
Right now, you can use my exclusive coupon to receive a 25% discount on any non-sale items from Lakeshore Learning! Just use the code 7873 at checkout to receive the discount. Once again, you can get the Ultimate Fort Builder RIGHT HERE.

We live in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Our winters are cold and long. My babies (4 and 2) love to build forts, but usually, this is done under our kitchen table which makes it difficult for much else to happen in that space for a few days. I love the idea of these fort builders so we could move our fort fun to other spaces of the house when it is too cold to be outside for long!
The Toddler-Safe Washable Sensory Materials Set is on our wish list this year. This collection would be great to incorporate in our everyday activities.
Books are on my wishlist
The Float and Find Alphabet Bubbles look like they would be great for me to use with my students!

Not only am I a Montessori Guide for primary aged children, but I also had a second job working for Lakeshore learning store. I loved their thoughtful way of considering the developmental needs of the child. I also learned the original owners had a background in Montessori. You can see so many of their materials were developed for the child and how they learn.
That makes a lot of sense. Thank you for sharing!
OMG when I saw this it took me back to my childhood days when we suspended a blanket over clotheslines. My granddaughter is spreading blankets over chairs, tables, couches, etc. I would love to be able to offer her the opportunity to build her own.
