Five Things That Make Bijou Different
1. “We are excited about all the modular pieces and how the kids will be able to use them for years to come.”
Do your kids lose interest in new toys within minutes of opening the box? Then your family needs a Bijou! This play structure will be a part of your kid's life at every milestone from ages 3 to 103.
2. “My grandson absolutely loves his! He spends hours outdoors exploring, reading, playing, and even eating in his private tent! It’s been a Godsent!”
Many researchers agree that kids who spend time outside are happier, more attentive, and less anxious. When the playtime is over, use your Bijou as a makeshift dining area, reading nook, or hangout area.
3. “ The quality is fantastic. The structure is very secure and it looks great! Can't ask for much more than that.”
As a parent or caretaker, you can relax knowing that your kids can have endless, all-year fun on this durable and made-to-last play structure. Regardless of the world events, your kids can have a safe space to create their own world.
4. “Really enjoying the setup in our yard. Kids have had hours of enjoyment playing on this thing ... more importantly, super easy to set up (and take down if you need to move it to another spot in the yard).”
Setup your Bijou in as little as one hour with our easy-to-follow written and video instructions. Name a better investment of your time. One-hour setup in exchange for hundreds if not thousands of playtime for your child.
5. “It's also aesthetically pleasing (no brightly colored plastic!) - my kids have really enjoyed their new play structure!”
Outdoor play doesn’t have to ruin the aesthetic appeal of your yard. Say goodbye to bright-colored plastics and unappealing shapes with a Bijou.

Easy Quick Setup!
Those kids keep you busy! Bijou is made for quick and easy assembly. Your initial assembly takes just under an hour with a helping hand or two.
1. SET OUT YOUR SUPPLIES
Ensure you have your Bijou Build kit and your pressure treated wood.
2. CHOOSE YOUR LOCATION
We recommend a relatively flat area, free of low-hanging branches or other obstructions. Also, choose a soft surface for staking.
3. ASSEMBLE WOOD TO BRACKETS
It helps to have a couple adults in this step. See product manual for more detailed instructions.
4. ATTACH PANELS
Easily attach your five teslin panels in the order you’d like with the velcro straps provided.
5. STAKE TO THE GROUND
Stake your Bijou Build to the ground to ensure everything stays put.
6. PLAY AND PUT AWAY
When you are done playing, remove the stakes, fold up the tent, and secure it with the included straps. We include easy to carry handles, so 2 adults (it's heavy!) can carry the Bijou to a new location or store it.
FAQ
Our open-ended and modular design allows your kids to explore and play endlessly. The level of customization and play you get with your Bijou Build play structure you can’t find anywhere else.
Single-use, plastic playsets are often clunky, uninspiring, and bad for the environment. The Bijou Build’s teslin panels made of recycled material are not only sustainable, they look beautiful too.
There are so many ways you can Bijou and you can repurpose it as the years go by and the kids grow up, making it an environmentally responsible and stylish choice.
Bijou is the first play system designed for families. Kids to teens to adults can enjoy Bijou in different ways. The Solar panel and 100LEDs make a magical hangout space and the Sway is the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee.
Bijou offers UV protection and an fun way for everyone to get outside.
Just about anywhere! It’s an outdoor play structure, but you can use it in the backyard, at the grandparent’s, the lake house and more. We do recommend a relatively flat and soft surface, so the Bijou is safely staked to the ground and the kids can play to their heart’s content.
It most certainly can! Bijou uses outdoor pro grade materials. Steel hinged bracket is powder coated steel with UV resistant coating. The metal hardware is stainless steel and the anchor feet are UV injected nylon.
The panels are made of 50% recycled water bottles and are a permeable UV Teslin material.
Bijou includes 2 storage straps so it is portable, but it is also a sturdy climbing structure so it does need to be staked down.
We also use pressure treated lumber so it is decay and mildew resistant, however, this does make the assembled Mainstay approximately 150lbs
Of course, the sun will breakdown anything given enough time, so it’s always best to store Bijou when it’s convenient or you aren’t using it, but not required, just suggested for longevity.
It’s easy peasy, lemon squeezy! Your initial assembly takes just under an hour with two adults. After that, whenever you want to Bijou, just pop it open, stake it to the ground, and get playing in just a few minutes.
Check out our Assembly Video here.
You need a Bijou Mainstay from us, which comes with all the hardware, panels, hinged bracket etc... and then you need 10ft long 2x4's from your local hardware store. If you order the wood with your Bijou, we will arrange for it to be sent from your local Lowes or Home Depot. We designed Bijou to use standard construction grade lumber that you can find locally. No fancy cuts needed, just 10ft length pressure treated 2x4's right off the shelf.
You will also need an 8ft step ladder and a drill to assemble the Bijou with the included wood screws and a power drill.
With that, you’re ready to get started. Assembly time with 2 adults is approx. 1 hour

No! it does not. We purposely designed the panels to be as permeable as possible while still providing UV protection and shade. Bijou doesn’t hold water or wind so it is more sturdy and stable.
