What's in your garden for the kids?

After years of living in a flat, we finally bought a house. Kids are 7 and 9, what do their kids play with at this age?

At that age, we had loads!

A basket ball hoop, climbing frame with swings/trapeze/a circle swing seat which they could both fit on, football goals, playhouse, swingball, big connect 4 set, sandpit, archery set and then just lots of things like skateboards, bikes, balls, tennis racquets, boules and a pool for the summer. We also had (still have) a bug hotel, if your kids like things like that.

Trampolines are popular but we didn’t have one due to the high accident rate, our kids always wanted one though.

Enjoy your garden, how lovely!

My youngest is younger than both yours, so I will go with what my older dc still uses. Climbing frame with climbing wall, monkey bars, slide, swing and nest swing. A trampoline. Football goal. Basketball hoop.
