Spoiler alert: They actually played together.
Strap in, cubby friends because this one's for the parents who’ve ever said, “Just play nicely for five minutes!” and hoped for the best.
Let’s paint a picture: one dining table, two little humans, and zero screens. Our Table Tents are not just another kids play tent, it’s a sibling-sized miracle. A soft-structured, imagination-fuelled, mess-free solution that fits right over your dining table and somehow fits into their wildest dreams too.
Why a cubby house works (even when siblings usually don’t)
It’s no secret getting siblings to play together can feel like negotiating world peace. But something shifts when you give them a shared world to co-create.
Whether they’re astronauts in deep space, running a restaurant with invisible soup, or acting out an entire episode of ‘Bluey’ under the table, the cubby house becomes neutral ground. A place where imagination rules and ownership is shared (mostly).
Here’s why it works:
-
Defined space = fewer turf wars
-
Roleplay encourages cooperation
-
Imagination distracts from conflict
-
They’re so busy laughing, they forget to bicker
From chaos to calm (or at least quiet-ish)
We’re not saying it’s a miracle. But when two kids play side-by-side, happily, for more than 10 minutes? That’s close enough.
Our Table Tents give kids the freedom to make up their own worlds, and gives you a few golden minutes to sip your coffee in peace. It’s the kind of screen free play that actually sticks not just because it’s fun, but because it feels like theirs.
Real homes, real play
Let’s get practical for a sec:
-
Fits standard dining tables 1.6–2m long and 1m wide
-
Folds down easily (because clutter isn’t cute)
-
Sturdy enough for wild imaginations (and the occasional dog nap)
-
Optional personalised sign for extra magic
This isn’t a Pinterest-perfect setup. It’s a practical, beautiful tool that looks lovely in your home and keeps the play going all afternoon.
Screens off, creativity on
Here’s the thing about screen free play it’s not about anti-tech rules or Pinterest guilt. It’s about giving kids something better to do. And cubby houses like this? They do the heavy lifting.
They whisper: "What if you were the captain of a spaceship? Or the owner of a bakery that only serves invisible cake?" And just like that, your living room becomes a universe of possibilities.

Quick FAQs (for the curious mums)
Will it fit my table?
Yes! Designed for tables 1.6m–2m long and 1m wide. Need bigger? We offer adjustments at checkout.
Will it survive my tornado twins?
Tested by kids, cousins, and one curious golden retriever. It’s built to last, and folds away when peace (finally) returns.
Can I personalise it?
Absolutely. Add a custom sign because when it says "Ava & Leo’s HQ", ownership gets real.
Does it come with accessories?
Nope you won’t need any. Just add spoons, paper, pillows, and let imagination do the rest.
Is this a good gift?
It’s the kind of gift that gets used, loved, and remembered. Grandparents, take note.
The final word?
Sibling play doesn’t have to be chaos. With the right cubby house, it can be connection, creativity, and just enough quiet to remind you that yes, they can play together.
Go on, take a breath. The cubby’s got this.
