Willie-playing with the doll house.

Educational and environmental psychologists, along with educators in the field, have taken a keen interest in fort building. Itâs a constant presence in early and middle childhood, the creation of places, often in plain site, and the experts agree that den, fort or secret space creation offers a host of cognitive and psychological benefits for the developing child.
âWhen children build new spaces for play, they create a new world to experience, and that experience creates a new world â one that runs according to different material and social rules.
What this means is that play gives children the opportunity to change their world to suit them. When children construct their own play environments, they naturally create ones that are most responsive to their needs, both at the moment and in terms of their long-term development.
The benefits to the children are clear â stronger senses of self and community, belief in oneâs own abilities to construct, adapt and demolish, the chance to identify and satisfy oneâs own social, material and spatial needs.â
