This is Fort Box. It is made from a deep box and its cover.
In the rim of the bent bandbox cone, cut a flap, and bend this back against the outer side of the tent. Stand the tent up upon its broad base, and there will be its entrance. Small sticks or thin pencils may be thrust through the top to make tent sticks. Indian symbols may be painted on the sides of the tent.

All the toy animals that I have played in the woods and Big Chief Ten-Cent Store hunted them. There was a deer that came off our Christmas tree, and a whole family of china bunnies, and—and you just ought to see him on the trail of Noah’s Ark animals! And—and you ought to see the lovely mats that are inside the Indian’s tent. I made them at Kindergarten myself.

Builded from a half a bandbox.
Dark behind it rose a mountain
