In one embodiment, the members are extruded cylinders (40) and include notches (48) or other interlocking features. In another embodiment, the members are flat panels (56) and include notches, teeth, apertures or other interlocking features (58). A play structure (20) comprises a plurality of the building elements (fig. 3) connected to one another. In one embodiment, the play structure comprises a cabin. Walls (22, 24, 26) of the cabin are constructed by interlocking elongate wall elements. The cabin includes a roof (30) constructed from interlocked flat panels or slats (56). A roof support (70) elevates the roof over the walls and connects the roof to the walls. A method of constructing a play structure comprises assembling a plurality of the building elements.
