Build Your Own Fort Kit for under $12!

Being a parent with a child on the spectrum comes with new challenges everyday but one of the hardest ones is the amount of therapies needed, which means one parent needs to be home as much as possible which means less time at work. Oh and did you know these therapies also aren’t free? So not only are you working less but your expenses are going up.. good combo right?

So I am a couponer, a bargain hunter and a cheap/fun gift giver!

This has been one of our favorites!

Supplies Needed:

-$12

-Bag for Supplies ($2.99 at hobby lobby)

-Clothespins ($1 at dollar tree)

-Large Tarp ($3 at Wal-Mart)

-Flashlight of some kind (found this super fun projector light at Dollar tree for $1!)

-Clamps of some sort ($3 at Wal-Mart- Our dollar tree didn’t have them in stock but sometimes you can find good size clamps for $1 there!)

-Rope ($3 at Walmart)

How to:

1. Grab your supplies

2. We added this Saying to the front of our bag using the cricut and some extra HTV we had lying around the house! For me it was free. Get creative! There are so many ways to personalize this.

3. We placed the clothespin in a dollar store drawstring bag I had lying around the house but a ziplock works just fine. Threw everything else in our bag and done in under 10 minutes!

Now you have a FUN unique Christmas present for under $12!
