What started as a fun family project quickly turned into total chaos, and by the end our den was completely trashed!
From building the den, to the kids taking over, to the unexpected disaster… this was one wild adventure in the garden! 🌿🏕️
The den's feeling sorry for itself now. Look at the state of it.
Hey guys, welcome to the vlog. Stands for video log. Today is our first sunny day of the year
so we've decided to build an epic den. We're going to use everything from around the house
and in the garden to make it as epic as possible. We're even going to try and eat our dinner out
So I think this has definitely got to be part of the main structure of the den don't you?
So we've got to get this down to where we want the den which is down there.
I'm gonna need some space guys because daddy's got to lift this down there by myself.
Cherish your muscles guys. Good muscles. Check out these guns.
Sorry darling you just uh you just stand there it's fine. Yeah you said
I'll lift this. Only one can film and one can do the hard work. You did say that.
Hold on, hold on.
Is there? I ain't scared. Why'd you put it down then? I was thinking of the poor spider.
This is where you drop it and break it isn't it?
Look at how strong I am. So I think this should be one side and that should be the other side.
Is that a good idea? Yeah. Can't go wrong with a bit of tarpaulin. I'll use this as the roof.
A makeshift den with god knows what we've just finding in our garden. It's turned into a tent.
Is it? Yeah it's a very small entrance. Oh this is cool. Daddy I think we should definitely turn
the house around though so we can actually use the house a bit. I think that's better and then
we can actually use it and maybe take a couple of those big blankets down for the floor. See
it matches your top and your hat. Same colour. Oh we could use that can't we? What's it like
so far in there? Ah nice. Good den vibe. What are you gonna do Boonebear? Come here then.
What are we thinking? That doesn't really fit on there. I tried that.
Did you? It doesn't just slide in like that. Well that's why uh you're here. I'm not a den making
expert all right? Leave me alone. Just making use out of our empty plant pot. Den's looking pretty
big Luna. Looks like a good amount of space. Yeah. We need another big plant pot. We need
another big plant pot. And the other. I better get my muscles out then again. Oh my goodness.
How high is that gonna be? I like that plant pocket in there. Someone big and strong must have
put that there Luna. Yeah. Oh thank you. Any danger of you helping us build this den? This was your
idea. No it was daddy's idea. Well hey the crocs are on. Come on then you can help us now. Let's go.
I can't film and help. It's impossible. You do the technical side. I'll do the heavy lifting side.
What darling?
A what? Slug. Slug. Sluggy slug. Slug I love. Well that's pretty much a slug then.
That den is looking pretty cool Luna don't you say?
Oh you got sluggy slug. What's his name? Slug. Just slug. It's original. Oh this looks cozy mummy.
Let's have a little nap in my den. Do you reckon mummy?
Join me. Mummy and daddy's work is done. Nap time.
I think that this den is pretty epic but inside I think it could be a lot more epic. Yeah I think
so. You're gonna have to carry me in the house to get my lunar chair. Your lunar chair? Then
who's gonna carry it down with you? So I've got to carry you then carry the chair on top of you.
Why don't I just leave you here and I get the chair? Yeah. The chair has arrived.
What about all of us? I think there's stuff in the shed. You go get. You go get. What we getting?
Just sort of get the cushions. The cushions? Cushions. Oh the cushions you mean? Cushions.
We'll get them foldable chairs there. That looks cozy. Here's your pillow son.
Oh it's about to get cozy. Do you have two pillows?
What? What are you scared of? Is it a spider? Just be double hard. Grab it
with one hand. I dare you. This is gonna be so cozy. What about the foldable chairs? Do you want
them? Yeah. We've got these bad boys. Do you want to chill outside or just in a bit of shade? Big
chair. Do you want to sit in it? You can try the chair out. Theo you can come sit on my chair.
Oh now you want Theo to sit on your chair. I wonder why that is. I wonder why that is.
It's just because I'm sitting it up. Yeah. Not because she wants to sit in there. Yeah.
Potato. Look. Don't cabbage me pal. Look. Can you potato me? Potato.
Surprise. That's how you do it. Where's the ants? Oh no. There it is.
It's looking a bit cozier guys but I still think it could be more epic.
Come on daddy. Bring some ideas to the table. I need to film how epic you make it.
Show everyone how easy it is to get to the trampoline from your house.
Look at that. Romeo done. Mummy's bought a table. I have that table here. Oh that's cool.
Put the table here please. It's a very rusty table. Rustic. We're going for the rustic vibe.
Yeah. I love sweeties. He does love sweeties. You love sweeties as well don't you Luna?
Make some sweet music guys. Some rock music. Yay. Did anyone else get a hundred Easter eggs
like Luna and Theo did? Yeah. We got bunny poo. When the Easter bunny gave Luna some Easter eggs
he pooed jelly beans all over the house didn't he? Yeah. He needed to poo everywhere. And guess
what? What? Luna ate them. Uh oh. I knew I ate them. Yeah but you made me test it because you
didn't want to eat the bunny poo to start with. Mummy didn't try any. I know because she didn't
want to eat the bunny poo did she? She said she would try it later but now it's gone.
What did you just do? Nothing. What the heck? Let's go see what mummy's got us.
Some sweeties. What a time to be alive guys. I'm eating sweeties. I know. Hello.
You got two fried eggs? Are you going to eat them both at once?
Oh mummy stole your fried egg. Oh darling. I'm sorry. Look Theo check out all these ants.
Over here look. They're all up the goalpost. Literally that quick. Should we name them?
John, Joe, Steve, Mark, Michael, Joanne, Anna, Pablo, Lovey, Luna, Theo, Mummy, Daddy.
Oh there's just too many to name isn't there? Don't call mummy daddy. Call them Kayley and Sam.
Alright. Kayley and Sam. Here's the whole crew checking out all the ants. I'm scared we're
going to get ants in our pants aren't we? Please hit the like button because it'll help the ants go away.
We've had a sweetie break and the den is looking pretty awesome. I've still got a sweetie. You've
still got a sweetie? How do we upgrade the den even more? It does look pretty awesome already.
What about that box? You wanted the box? Yeah. The box can be in my area. No one can come in.
Okay. Here comes the box. It's about as creative as daddy gets.
What are you going to put on there Luna?
Is this like our flag for the den? That's so cool. Mummy's creating the tunnel to the kitchen.
Uh-oh. Uh-oh. Man down. Man down. Flag's coming along nicely now. Right we have the correct tool
for you mummy. Tunnel's being made PA. Oh we've got a door. You want to paint it? We're going to
paint the tunnel. You've got to disguise it really because it's too obvious at the minute. It's
sticking out like a sore thumb. If you want two minutes mummy you shouldn't have had kids.
What you got for us mummy? Paint. Oh we're going to paint the tunnel. Let's get painting. What is it?
What is it? What is it? It's a fly. Just a fly. Mummy is well scared of flies, spiders, ants.
You are scared of ants. She's not scared of ants, she's scared of us. In fact I don't think there's anything you're not
scared of. Good painting guys. I wonder what it'll look like at the end. How are we getting on guys?
Oh you've done this side haven't you? And the top half. And this bit. And you've done that bit. Well
done mate. That's so good. No I did that, he started doing it wasn't I? Oh did he? Was it all you then was it?
Luna, what are you doing? Are you painting it with your hand? What a mess you're gonna make. Theo
you hand painting now as well. What a messy. Oh my god Luna. Look at that. Can you make any more mess?
Oh Theo's joined in now. Right go on then paint the actual box then. Don't just paint your hands.
Oh my goodness. That's gloopy.
That did like a cheeky little fart. It's gonna be a big drip. Save it.
Wipe it. No you're dripping. Not by that door Theo.
Oh is he checking out that door? Bless him. Get away from me pal.
And you. Don't you come near me. Oh Luna. We're not maybe painting that. So you've got
now all on your hands and your feet. And you're breaking the tunnel. Carnage is happening.
I don't think the box is gonna get finished. Got to try and stay on your feet.
Don't hold on to the box.
Man down. Man down. Oh too bad. Everyone's down.
Well I don't see much painting going on.
You're getting mumma. Oh stop hitting yourself.
You're gonna have a hose down. You're gonna need a...
Oi look. This was meant to be a fun little paint of a box and now look at the state of you two.
You're definitely getting hosed down. Mummy's got the hose. Time for a hole down.
Oh this is where we're gonna find out if the den's waterproof. Come out. Come out wherever
you are. Mummy's gonna get you. Quick. Go around that way quick. I think you'll be all right.
Oh no. Mummy's coming. Oh I can see Alex. She's coming. She's coming.
Oh I got a hose down. You're getting your hose down.
We're gonna be drenched in there for dinner. Go in your house.
School boy error.
You trapped yourselves. Oh you are drenched pal. Are you clean?
Oh mummy. You told her you wouldn't do it.
That was like every man for himself. Theo was just cannon fodder to Luna.
Is this the trampoline shower? Yeah. This is one way to get you clean.
The den's feeling sorry for itself now. Look at the state of it. Soaked. Drenched.
It's falling apart. Car wash is over guys. You've run out of credit.
You both went at the same time then. Where's dinner den gonna be?
So here we are in the in the dinner den.
Not a very good dinner den. It's not actually a dinner den. It's just an umbrella.
But things didn't go to plan did they mummy?
Well I was just having too much fun. Someone trashed the den with water. Who was that guys?
Why did she do that? It was really good fun wasn't it guys? Great end to a great day.
