Den Building Kit

Building dens is the traditional flagship for natural play, and, hands up, who doesn’t love building a den!

At the heart of each Den Building Kit is a permanently constructed timber frame that acts like the branch of a mature tree to kick-start the dens. Each kit has all the supplies needed to make some fantastic spaces.

Children can work as a team, or play alone, to use materials supplied in the kit, Chestnut Dens Poles, Hazel Rustics, Hardwood Plank Collection, to create retreats for reflection or gathering places for hatching great plans.

Every Den Building Kit comes with an instruction guide complete with step-by-step instructions, ensuring a smooth building experience.
