Now you can build a Fort Magic castle for kids’ play and make it look like a realistic castle. This is a sponsored review and giveaway of Fort Magic’s new Knights & Dragons printed fabric castle covers.
A big thank you to Fort Magic for sponsoring this post and for sending us their new fabric covers to try out and review. As always, all opinions expressed are my own.
You know how long we’ve been using and loving Fort Magic?
YEARS.
And we have built everything from airplanes to teepees, tunnels and mazes to witch houses, submarines to canoes, backyard playhouses to castles.
And every time we’ve built something new, we’ve covered it with a colorful and ragtag assortment of play silks, thrift store scarves, sheets, curtains, and other fabrics.
It works and we love it but it looks like we covered it with a ragtag assortment of play silks and thrift store scarves.
Basically, it looks a bit like a traveling circus caravan whether it’s supposed to be a canoe or a submarine or a castle.
But! Not today. Today we have a Fort Magic castle in our living room that looks like a real castle. This castle is complete with stonework, ivy, sconces, arches, crenelation, flags, and an owl. It looks like something out of Harry Potter.
One of our favorite 3 year olds visiting for some kid art and castle play.
Everyone is very impressed.
How did we go from the hodgepodge look to a polished castle straight out of the middle ages or a fairy tale book?
Fabric Covers for a Fort Magic Castle
Fort Magic has created beautiful new covers to use with their fort kits! They are starting with fort covers for a Knights & Dragons castle (pictured here), with more covers coming soon.
When the Fort Magic folks asked if I wanted to try out their new covers, I jumped at the chance! I’m so excited to share our experience with you and offer an awesome giveaway of a Fort Magic kit AND a set of the new castle covers.
The Fort Magic castle with the covers in progress of being added.
The castle cover set is used with the Fort Magic kit to build a great-looking castle in your playroom for months of pretend play.
To purchase the castle covers, accessories, and, of course, the Fort Magic construction kit itself, visit the Fort Magic store.
The Fort Magic castle covers look awesome.
- Everything about them from the print job, attention to detail, color, and overall appearance is great.
- It looks like a “real” castle. The Fort Magic kit covers elevate the look of the entire fort kit and make it look professional.
- Kids get excited about the details, including the owl, the pennants and flags, and the quiver of arrows. There are even “hidden” gems to find, including a gecko, little frogs, and a four-leaf clover.
The fabric covers are very well made.
- They are well made and feel like they will last a long time. The fabric is sturdy, the stitching is well done, and the covers fit perfectly.
- The sectional cover pieces work well with the Fort Magic kit tubes and connectors.
- The Fort Magic kit covers are relatively open-ended. While the door and crenelation are specialty parts, the rest are squares and rectangles that easily work a variety of ways. They fit the sections of a Fort Magic kit fort that might be built differently each time.
The covers take a bit more work.
It DOES take a little more work to put the covers on this fort than the other Fort Magic projects we’ve built over the years.
First you need to build the fort. Then you need to dismantle sections of the fort in order to slip the covers on before reconnecting each section.
Because of this, putting them on is a grown-up (or older kid) job. It was a great job for 12-year-old Maia, but a 6- or 7-year-old who builds the castle probably won’t be up to the task of putting the covers on alone. I say hire or bribe the closest tween/teen you can find to do the job or be up for building it yourself before your young kids are ready to play.
Once the covers are on, though, your hard work will pay off; the castle looks so good and you will want to leave it up for a loooong time. I found myself imagining how much fun this would be for a birthday party or a really special play date!
A castle is a castle is a castle.
Using the castle covers makes the fort kit feel a bit less open-ended.
A castle cover set makes the fort look like a castle. Period. An amazingly lifelike, incredible castle, but definitely a castle. With the covers on, it can’t be a castle one day and a submarine the next day. You can build the castle in different configurations (tunnels, balconies, columns, etc), so there is still plenty of space for kids to have input on the design, but it’s definitely made to look like a castle.
When your kids are ready to have a submarine, or a race car, you can put the castle covers away in the handy storage bags and use the construction kit in another way until it’s castle time again.
So, if your kids like castles and fairy tales, they might really enjoy a castle cover set for your Fort Magic kit. (I suggest choosing one of the castles in the idea booklet and following directions the first time or two before you start designing your own castles.)
And if you don’t have the extra cash for a castle cover set, stick to the Fort Magic kit for now (well worth the investment!) and a mishmash of scarves, playsilks, sheets and curtains to cover your forts and castles.
To purchase a Fort Magic kit and castle covers visit the Fort Magic store.

Tim
May 8, 2018 at 4:21 pmThis would sure beat the chairs and blankets our kids currently use. The best part of this would be the assembly. It looks like it would be fun, and we could all do it together.
Whitney
May 8, 2018 at 5:04 pmMaybe with this, I’d get my couch cushions back! My boys (3.5 & 6) would love it!

May 9, 2018 at 1:06 amWe would adore adding a second set on; we get so much use out of ours, but the kids always want to make it bigger!

Molly
May 9, 2018 at 8:18 amMy kids love to make forts, but their Dad hates having to reassemble the furniture when they are done. They use every cushion in the basement and often incorporate the dog’s kennel and turn a chair or two upside down. This looks like an amazing solution!
Veronika

May 9, 2018 at 2:11 pmAs an artist, I can attest to the creativity this kit contributes to child fantasy play.
Amy Price
May 9, 2018 at 2:02 pmMy sons and the children next door have spent hours and hours in their cardboard box “castle” that has now completely fallen apart. This would be a dream come true!

Diane
May 9, 2018 at 2:07 pmReally cool!
Gale
May 9, 2018 at 2:07 pmMy darling loves to build forts and have spaces to snuggle with a book or pretend play. I’m crossing my fingers and being hopeful!
Catherine Holliss
May 9, 2018 at 2:07 pmI have always wanted to add this kit to my child’s play as the dress-up box and lots of imaginary play is an almost-daily occurrence in our house. The castle option just makes it even more exciting and, you are right, when done the kids can always go back to other ways to put the kit together. Of course, being the children of architects I can imagine this would get a big work-out in our home!
Kate
May 9, 2018 at 2:08 pmThis is so fun! A castle anytime/anywhere! My kids wouldn’t come out :)
Anna

Cat
May 9, 2018 at 2:20 pmMy kids love taking the couch cushions off and doing the same thing! Ha! They are so creative :)
Jennie
May 9, 2018 at 2:10 pmI’ve looked at these kits forever and LOVE them! What a great idea for open-ended summer play with my 6 and 2 year olds!
Amy Feldman
May 9, 2018 at 2:10 pmSo cool! We made a cardboard castle earlier this year and my kids loved it. I can only imagine how much fun this castle fort would bring to our family. Thank you for your review and for the chance to win a castle fort.
Vered
May 9, 2018 at 2:10 pmI love how you turn everything into an opportunity to stretch the imagination! This would be so fun!

Marisa
May 9, 2018 at 2:18 pmMy son has challenges with imaginary play. This would help him launch into a new dimension of fun and imagination! He loves books, so I could imagine pairing this with a knights and castles book and trying to act out a story together! What a neat kit!
Dorothy
May 9, 2018 at 2:18 pmWow! We haven’t tried Fort Magic yet- this has me thinking about the possibilities. Very cool.

Renee
May 9, 2018 at 2:26 pmI wonder if this might work in our little apartment?! It would certainly add to the magic and whimsy already at play. This looks like so much fun!
Nicole
May 9, 2018 at 2:26 pmWe took your advice and got a Fort Magic kit for our kids for Christmas last year. We would LOVE to expand our set and add the castle covers!!
Nicole Gropp
May 9, 2018 at 2:29 pmWow, I’ve never seen this. My three year old would LOVE to do this! He’s always asking me to read with him “in the tent” of our blankets. This would blow his little mind! And, honestly, I might build myself a mom-zone for coffee and magazines.
