Best garden entertainment

[BrilliantBetty]

What do your DC (toddler - primary age) enjoy doing in the garden?

I want to get our garden kitted out for summer, as they don't spend that much time in the garden. We moved recently from a tiny house in busy London without much outdoor space to a countryside house with big garden. They aren't that keen to go out there. How can I make it more interesting

At that age we had a sand pit table, paddling pool and a small side. They didn’t always want to go out, but once they were outside they enjoyed it.

Sandpit (make sure you have a cover), paddling pool, swingball, selection of planks and old bricks that they’re always making ramps etc from for cars or using to balance on (ninja training). Small metal dome climbing frame, often with a sheet over it for a den.

A waterbut, children's watering can, couple of children's spades. Hours of fun in the garden and then in the bath afterwards while they get clean again

Balls. Seven million balls and a bucket to store them in.
Sheets hanging on the washing line.
Some bricks.

DS is 3 and these are by far his fave things.
We also have a water table, Wendy house and sandpit.
