Create a play zone

Every playground is certainly equipped with a play zone that children love. For a small backyard, you can choose a swing, trampoline, slide, climbing board, or a small corner to play. Place several small garden benches and tables that don’t take up too much space. Meanwhile, for a large backyard, you can build a playhouse or a tree house complete with a play zone such as a tunnel, slide, swing, and a fairly large sandbox. A playground like this is also a favorite place for families to relax, gather or spend time on weekends.
