Q&A for How to Make a Fan Fort

This is a good summer fort to escape the heat. If it's too cold inside, bring a blanket with.

Put together a few sheets, or use a really big sheet.

Yes, for this type of fort you must use a fan.

No, because the sides won't be sealed, and you'll end up with the air from the fan going out.

On the end of the blanket, as shown in the picture. This is so that when you turn on the fan, the blanket won't blow away.

It may be hard to avoid deflating, but it would be easier to ask for help, that way when you get in your fort they can fix it.

Yes, as long as they're heavy enough. Be careful though -- weights could fall if they're not set up carefully.

Try asking If you can put it in your room. If they still say no, you can ask if you can if you don't make a mess.

If you're building the fort on a high place, like a bed, then a tall fan would work.

If you have pegs you can peg together pillow cases, clothes, plastic bags, sheets of paper, or just use you blanket.

Use a sheet from your bed. And light objects (books, lamps, even small pieces of furniture like end tables) should work to hold down the sheet.

You can't. A sheet or something not too heavy that won't inflate is required to make sure no air escapes. But you can still make a cool fort with some pillows and a blanket!

Of course! Your fan fort can be made bigger by using larger blankets or combining smaller pillow cases.

No. If you use a small fan, the fort won't hold up. The small fan isn't powerful enough.
