Hope I'm not too late to be of any help, I'm a 5' 5" female and can put the HiGear Mojave 5 up on my own. Standing height throughout pretty much all of the tent and I really love it! It took me about an hour to put it up on my own (have only done it once so far) and that included putting the footprint down, pegging out the guy ropes and putting the carpet in. But I did take my time and could possibly have done it quicker if I was so inclined. HTH

Last year our then 10yr old daughter put up the Icarus 500 with only help to clip the poles on one side (she was worried about bending them too far and breaking them!). Would recommend the Outwell dinosaur sleeping bag,

We too have the outwell dinosaur sleeping bag for our three year old.  He has never woken up cold and we have camped in zero degree conditions.  We managed to pick it up in the sale last year but you can still get them
