Outside toy presents

[Wildpoppies]

We have a garden for the first time. The kids love it and spend lots of time out there with scooters and having pretend picnics. Other than a playhouse, balls and hula hoops what things could I get them to play with out there? Ideally can be left out all weathers. Not swings or slides.

Sandpit.
Spacehoppers.
Swingball.
Pogo sticks.
Ride on cars.
Basketball hoop.

Depending on age, my 9yo loves her Lolo ball (balance thing that you bounce around on). Or proper skipping ropes with a book of old skipping verses? Croquet set?

We have a flexi tub of balls, bean bags, skittles and that sort of thing which gets lots of use over the summer.

Football goal or basket ball hoop.

Sand pit, definitely needs a lid if you plan to leave it out.

Pop up tent, our cheep camping one has lasted better than the play ones.

Water table is still a big favourite with dd who is 8

Trampoline, little tikes Wendy house. My kids love their little tikes red cart they fill it with stuff and pull it around. Wheelbarrow and kids gardening tool sets, chalk is always popular, nerf or water guns, paddling pool or water table. If you have a tree and a local garage you could get an old tyre for free and make a swing with them. Gardens are great, we went from a yard to a garden and it did take a year for my kids to get get to know what to do with it.

Our trampoline has been used every day ( when it's not raining ) since we got it 3 years ago, it has been worth the money.

We got a Spiro Hop Bouncing See Saw a couple of years ago. It has mostly been kept outside, and is now looking a bit worse for wear (but still operational). It can also be used indoors apparently. The kids love it (now 7 and almost 5) and spend a lot of time on it. The odd non-serious injury and wail happens, but about same as other kinds of outdoor play.
Agree re the gardening sets - some gorgeous ones with aprons, small tools, gloves etc. Can get some pots for them to decorate, and seeds (veg or flowers). Not so good for winter, but something to look forward to doing when spring comes. Depends on their age of course!
