Has anyone made a kids teepee and if so care to share the pics? Thanks! I'm thinking about ordering the pattern, I think it would be a lot of fun.

We used these at a daycare I worked at. The director's mom made about 50 of them...she just used fabric that was on sale. I am sure they would last longer with the canvas, but if you don't have a lot of money to spare it would be a great alterntative.

We used them at nap time...the kids LOVED them...it was their own space to sleep!

Can anyone tell me where I can find the bamboo stakes. I've been to every hardware store in my area. They are all sold out.

Ok, sorry for the delay. Here is a link for pics of my teepee, as promised.

I used dowel rods. We bought them at the hardware store because the ones that JoAnn sells are too short. You might be able to find bamboo poles in a gardening store. I know that my mother used to use them to make trellises for the garden.
