What to use to insulate playhouse?

ive bought bubble wrap, and there will be enough for two layers of that, and my mum has some leftover foil insulation from the house and so i'm using that aswell. I'm pretty sure you can buy insulation that is bubble wrap with attached foil that some people on here has used so that would be kinda what i'm trying to achieve :)
 
I've used a combination of these of my shed and playhouse:

I use the foil stuff first then cover it with the boards which are easy to cut and fit into the panels of the playhouse. You then need to put plywould or similar panels over the top otherwise the buns will take great delight in shredding the insulation.

I also put a layer of the foil stuff on the roof:

It looks a bit mad but is great at reflecting the sun off, so keeping it cool in hot weather :)

:wave: We used the silver bubble stuff too and stapled it onto the walls. We got it from homebase when it was on offer but most DIY places do it.
