This garden grew with me. It was founded by my parents, but I have been taking care of it myself for several years. I gave a new shape to the flowerbeds, began to form bushes and plant new plants. However, a lot has changed since I had my children. Now I want the plot to be one hundred percent safe for them. From the first months of their lives, my children spend every free moment in the garden. Searching for "muffs", i.e. ants or snails, is a real fun for the older son of Michaś. Birds and insects are also interesting guests.
Lawn - an excellent playgroundWhen my husband and I were transforming the garden, we left a large square for a lawn between the flower beds.Now, on the soft, well-mown grass, the little ones can play without any problems, and we do not have to worry about our flowers or vegetables. When we sowed the grass, we chose the recreational seed mix because it is more durable.
Little gardenersMy husband and I try to interest the children with small allotments, accessible to little hands - watering, weeding, looking for snails. The older son even has his own watering can and is happy to use it. I think we are growing a helper for the future.
Recreation corner
There was also a place for entertainment in our garden. So a sandbox, a house, a trampoline and a slide were created. On hot days, everyone enjoys the swimming pool, and then relaxing on the mattress. And if it's raining, it's fun to play in puddles and mud.We still have a lot of plans for the future. We want a wooden playground to be built, hammocks and miniature houses.

Our advice
- Children should be kept away from poisonous and prickly plants. With common sense, of course.
- Let's make sure that there are as few protruding, hard elements as possible around.
- The youngest must have a space that allows them to play freely.
- Deeper water reservoirs should be fenced off.
- Tools and plant protection products should be kept in the closet.
