Moominmamma has a special skill for ensuring that people feel cared for and welcome to be themselves. Now and then, she has special guests that need care and attention, and she just takes them in like it is the most natural thing in the world. We wanted to honor this fantastic quality the whole Moomin family seems to have—always being kind and making sure that everyone feels safe and can belong in a home like the Moomin home. One special story we really like is from the comic strips, where Moominmamma took in Little My and all her siblings for a while. They were a handful for sure! (Somehow, Little My just remained with the Moomins and lived in their house and later got adopted, but that is another story.) It is an amazing character trait to see what other people might need and just let them live for a while in your house.

The tent, with practical pockets (of course inspired by Moominmamma's apron) both outside and inside, has room for small books or toys, so you can always have what you need in your own cozy area. The Moomin tent is made from sturdy canvas in certified cotton and FSC-certified wooden poles. The door can "always be open" by using the curtain holders on each side of the door. For the books and toys you want to bring inside the tent, there are two inside pockets. On the outside, you have a smaller pocket where you can find three small Moomin textile figures, like comfy cushions to play and cuddle with: Moominmamma, Little My, and Sniff; a small reminder that a family can look however you want and that the Moomin family represents this way of living. Moomins embrace this diversity with open hearts, showing us that true equality means welcoming all kinds of children with love and acceptance.

Having a personal space encourages children to take ownership and feel independent, which is crucial for their development. Tents can offer a unique space that fosters imaginative play, allowing children to create their own worlds and stories. Reading creates and enhances empathy, helping children understand and share the feelings of others. Fiction enhances this by allowing children to understand characters' thoughts and emotions, translating to real-world empathy. Tents offer a quiet area for children to retreat and relax, having their own snug alone-time. A comfy nook with pockets for books can be a perfect spot for children to read more, enhancing their interest in books and reading. Sharing this tent space with siblings, friends, or parents for reading together can also improve social interactions and collaborative play.
