While some have begun venturing out as restrictions have lessened amid the coronavirus pandemic, others may prefer to remain as socially distanced as possible.

So rather than venturing outdoors to camp, they may elect to bring the experience indoors. To help bring that experience to life for children or children at heart, Ikea has unveiled a guide to building tents and forts indoors.

"#StayHome was the general slogan of this spring," said Ikea Russia in a press release obtained by Today.com. "Self-isolation and quarantine measures are ongoing. Parents no longer know how else they can entertain their children being stuck inside four walls."
