How to Create a Backyard Paradise for Your Kids with Above Ground Pool Financing and More!
You wake up, shrug into the kitchen, and before you can press brew on that life-sustaining coffee pot, your beautiful, bright-eyed tiny human reminds you of your promise to go to the park and the community pool today. And in kid time, today means absolutely, positively RIGHT NOW! So, maybe it’s time your munchkin gets their own backyard paradise—and you get to finish that cup of coffee before it gets cold. Here are some ideas on creating a backyard your kids will love, including playground equipment tips and how to get above ground pool financing.
Swing Sally Up, Swing Sally Down
One of the first things you may want to shop for is, of course, playground equipment. You’ll want to find something that your kids can use for a few years but isn’t out of their skill level right now.
Do you have more than one kid? A swing set with at least two swings and a see-saw can encourage them to play together. Is your brood on the younger side? A covered sandbox provides endless hours of fun.
You may also want to think about mobility. Do you plan on moving? And is it important you bring your playground with you if you do?
A Soft Place to Land
One of the first things you learn as a parent is that kids fall down—a lot. So, you’ll want to choose a foundation for your playground that works for both safety and landscaping. Some popular options are:
- Solid rubber matting: Super safe and low maintenance.
- Rubber mulch: Similar to solid rubber in safety, but a lot cheaper.
- Sand: Cheap, but requires some maintenance from time to time.
- Artificial Grass/Turf: Wheelchair accessible and relatively low maintenance.
Location Matters!
Now that you have an idea of what you’d like your playground to look like, it’s time to pick the perfect spot. There are a lot of factors when it comes to where to build your backyard oasis. You may want it in the shade, but be mindful of falling branches. You’ll also want to be positioned so you can peek out the window when you need to check on them.
Do you have a garden? You’ll probably want your park away from your plants. Are you planning on landscaping anytime soon? Keep those visions in mind. Can your garden hose reach for a quick spray-off or a makeshift water park?
A Swimming Pool—The Ultimate Paradise for Kids!
Speaking of water parks, if you’d like to enhance your kids’ play area (plus make a ton of amazing memories with them), consider financing a swimming pool for your backyard! It’s perfect for learning to swim, cooling off when it’s hot, and spending time together as a family during summer break. Plus, it’s fun for the whole family, from your little littles all the way up to most grown-and-flown teens.
No matter what your budget is, there’s a pool that’s perfect for you! An above-ground pool is an easy, quick route to having a pool in your backyard. With a custom deck, you can really customize it to your tastes and have a perfect place to lounge while you supervise your kids swimming.
