After a great day at the lake or in the park, people often enjoy a holiday party. But a traditional holiday party can be out of reach for some families because they do not have the room for an elaborate event. Now, the advent of the large multi-day camps and family events in Europe and North America has brought the need for family entertainment outdoors, with tents.
The word “tipi” originated in Europe, and is the shortened form of the word “tent.” In Europe, the word “tipi” is used to refer to the houses of the Orthodox Jews.
The “tent” was not just for protection against the cold; in fact, in the Middle Ages, times were as many social events as they were used as dwellings. Women would gather to make up crafts and to cook for their community. These days, you will find many families using their property as a venue for social events.
The tipi, which is also known as a topee, was originally made of animal skins and is still made of such today. The tent has been adapted from the caravans, and the poles were used for protection. Today, the tipi remains popular for camp parties because it offers a fun, festive environment and easy construction.
Eliminates The Need for Larger Tents and Makes It Easier to Move the Setup
It is important to note that the tent does not have to be constructed with “cots” attached to it. A “tent” can be simply a single-pole structure, which you can build around. This eliminates the need for larger tents and makes it easier to move the setup.
Experience Has Expanded Significantly
People often ask how Tipis have transformed the modern party. Generally, the answer is that the experience has expanded significantly. At a tipi party, you will find a whole host of social events for guests to attend.
Traditional outdoor parties are often built indoors to fit in with an indoor space. A single table and chairs are often used for smaller events, such as barbecue parties. There is always the fear that guests will be crowded into one area and won’t get enough room to move around.
Guests Can Easily Move from One Part of the Tent to Another and Can Plan Advance How Many People Will Attend
A tipi, on the other hand, allows the party to be set up and taken down by a single person. Guests can easily move from one part of the tent to another, and because there is no “reheating” of the party, you don’t have to worry about overcrowding your guest. Another advantage is that you can plan in advance how many people will be able to attend your party.
Designed in a Number of Ways
Topee tents can be made of any material you choose. Often, the most popular choice is wood, but metal or even plastic will be appropriate for certain types of events. If you’re really looking for a very unique way to build a tent, you may even want to consider designing your own design.
Topee tents can be designed in a number of ways. You can purchase a pre-made tent and just add accessories to it, or you can customize it to include things like side panels and grommets.
Family-Friendly Tent
If you want a more elaborate tent, you can use the standard tents as a base for a special tipi design. You can also use them to form a summer camp or summer getaway. For example, if you want a family-friendly tent that everyone will enjoy, you could take an old school tent and add extra accessories for decoration.
Conclusion
From a beachside getaway to an indoor gathering, the need for the topee has evolved and been transformed into a viable party option. When you decide to try a topee, you should know that you are taking a very old tradition and making it “modern” so it can be enjoyed by a wider audience. and that means it’s good for anyone, regardless of what your interest or tolerance level is.
