About this idea

The elf has built a mischievous fort by stacking all the sofa cushions upside down in a tower or zigzag pattern on the floor. Add stuffed animals sitting around it like the elf is hosting a silly meeting or tea party. Preschoolers will giggle at the chaos and beg to rebuild or play in the cushion creation.

What you'll need

  • Sofa cushions
  • Stuffed animals
  • Small blanket or scarf
  • Optional: small tea set or toy cups

How to set it up

  1. Remove all sofa cushions and arrange them in a tower or zigzag pattern on the floor.
  2. Place stuffed animals around the base of the cushion structure to look like they're sitting in attendance.
  3. Drape a small blanket or scarf over part of the cushions to look like a tiny tablecloth for the elf's tea party.

Tips & variations

  • Let your preschoolers help rebuild the fort in their own creative way after discovering it.
  • For extra fun, hide a small note or treat under one of the cushions inviting kids to join the 'elf party.'
