What is a Playstand?

One of the most versatile open-ended toys in a child's playroom is the playstand. Children use them for just about anything one can imagine.  Children use the playstand to create a cozy house or a bustling store, or when a child hangs a silk or cloth from the canopy it turns into a wonderful puppet theater. While many of us recall memories of being under the table and dreaming in similar forts, the playstand is a permanent fort that need not be taken down in preparation of dinner.
