Kaya's Tepee (new version)
Item# T6559
$125 (price increase from $118 in January 2012)
Kaya would have slept inside a tepee just like this one. It pops up easily and there’s plenty of room for a doll inside. Includes two tule mats to trim the entrance, plus a faux wood fire that really lights up and makes "crackling" sounds.
Dimensions: W: 37" x H: 32" x D: 37"
Wow, this one is SO much nicer than the original one! The diameter of this one is 3ft! The poles are attached to the faux leather hide which makes set up a BREEZE! Just open it up and set it down!
The fire is a bit larger than the original fire and has separate light and sound buttons.
The tule mats are the same size as the older ones, but a more natural color.
Comparison photos of the original and new sets here:

EDIT TO ADD more information about how this one stands up.
The poles of Tepee 2 are attached to the inside of the fabric with elastic bands. This is different than the loose pile of sticks with Tepee 1.
The two sticks at the outside of the back of the Tepee are looped through the fabric at the middle front to help the smoke to escape (as well as help it stay open).
Four of the sticks are tied together using a hole drilled through them. The other five sticks just lie up against these four.
