Ohh, how wonderful this is, @ammonite !! I LOVE your design, and your re-use of wood - and it being the very tree that you adventured in as a wean! That's amazing. I loved the trees where I grew up on the Isle of Arran, like they were siblings... we never had tree houses, but I did make an old den from decades before, under the ground, into a brilliant hobbit kind of house... It had a chimney and a turf roof, so was really secret. :-D

Thanks, Clare. We had such adventures as children with all the trees near my house and everyone had a name. I want my son to get out there and start naming his own adventures but this summer had been not the greatest.
That underground hobbit house sounds so cool and probably much safer for little ones. My project will continue as I find more materials and have the time.
Beautiful, @ammonite :-) I feel too, that the element of some danger or challenge is very important in learning as a child, and a LOVE that you are willing to let some of that into their lives - some of my most important learning came from being up trees when small - especially gymnastic creative movement; we were very fit and sane kids.
