Abstract: A portable playpen embodies a disassemblable base frame having elongated upright members connected thereto and defining upstanding corner posts for a rectangular enclosure in the form of a one piece fabric unit having rectangular panels defining a box-like compartment having a bottom panel joined along its edges to upstanding side panels with adjoining edge portions of adjacent side panels secured to each other. Sleeve-like members are connected to the adjoining edge portions of adjacent side panels and extend outwardly thereof in position to telescope downwardly over an adjacent corner post with such corner post being in spaced relation to the adjoining edge portions of adjacent side panels. Stop members limit downward movement of the sleeve-like members relative to the corner posts.
