So much more than a cosy tent for hiding from siblings, kids’ teepees are a spot to let imaginations run free and a spectacular piece of kiddie décor that completely transforms play spaces and bedrooms.
From canvas to lace, pink to neutral, these days there are more teepee styles, colours and sizes than ever to choose from, and we’ve hunted high and low to pinpoint the best of them.
OUR PICK OF THE CROP
13 kids teepees for extended play
To help you find a teepee for your toddler tots playroom, we’ve compiled this list of leading brands available in Australia to get you started in your search.
Mocka
Mocka Henley Teepee ($99.95)
There are three different styles to colours from in the Henley Teepee design from Mocka, all of them crafted from durable fabric and built to withstand rough-and-tumble play. Lightweight and easy to move from room to room, these teepees are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.
Cattywampus
Cattywampus Kids Teepee ($199)
This high-end kids’ teepee in white is quite literally a blank canvas ready to be transformed into a completely unique kiddie cocoon. It has rubber stoppers on the ends of the poles for extra grip on hard floors, an adorable peek-a-boo window and a handy storage pocket. Totally gift-worthy, this one comes pre-assembled in its own storage tube.
Dalos Dream
Dalos Dream Giant Teepee ($79.99)
What’s not to love about pompom trims and a dreamy lace window?! This inviting white teepee also comes with a convenient carry bag for moving the tent about – because you can count on the kids wanting to take this one to Gran’s.
Lulo Kids
Lulo Kids Floral Teepee ($169)
This stunning handmade sanctuary features a pure cotton cover and Tasmanian Oak poles that will see kids through years of daydreaming. With an Australian-designed floral print on the entrance, stepping into this will be like entering a flower-filled wonderland.

Fessyc
Fessyc Kids’ Play Tent Teepee ($139)
With loads of room, stunning traditional design and a dreamcatcher thrown in for good measure, this is just the place for littlies to while away the afternoon. We’re especially loving the roll-up curtain and blue pompom goodness on this gem.
Bloomingville
Bloomingville Children’s Tipi ($295)
This Danish-designed abode combines Nordic themes with bucket-loads of earthy vibes. It measures a roomy 140 centimetres across the base and features macramé-style embellishments, tassels and flags. Dress it up, or let its natural state do the talking – either way, this is a winner in our book.

With loads of colour and cuteness in spades, we just love this teepee for the younger kids. It has a roll-up window, fabric flooring and a convenient pop-up frame for ease of moving. Suitable for use inside and outside, littlies can sit, stand or even nap away the day in this one.
