Creating a playground in the country with your own hands

While adults are working on developing flower beds or weeding beds in the country, children need to find something to do in their free time. You can make a playground with your own hands, which will help to captivate kids with an interesting game. The arrangement and design of such a zone from improvised means on the site is a very exciting activity, to which you can connect those for whom the game complex is being built.

Creating a playground in the country with your own hands

Game Coverage

Sports lawn

To create a home-made playground in the country with your own hands, you need to choose the right cover. Small children will enjoy a sports lawn, which is highly resistant. The disadvantage of this choice is the need for regular watering and haircuts.

If it is decided to equip a play area in a summer cottage for older children, it is better to use crushed stone (as drainage) and sand (for top cover). Instead of sand, you can use a special rubber coating. It is characterized by durability and strength.

If there are no plans to make a capital site, you can fill the whole territory with plain sand. It will sometimes have to be added, but such a solution is perhaps one of the most practical.

Another option is to consider crushed bark. But not everyone can get such material. The coating is soft and safe.

There are more technological solutions:

Rubber crumb

  1. Regupol.
  2. Rubber crumb.
  3. Modular PVC systems.
  4. Artificial grass.

The choice is quite complicated, but if the budget allows, you can use the finished project. It will have a detailed drawing, dimensions and description of all elements, as well as a sketch of the playground. The most popular coatings at the moment are sand and grass.

Equipment selection

Sandbox

Choosing the future elements of the play area is best with children. After all, they will spend most of the time there.

For the smallest, you should definitely build a sandbox. This element of the playground has a good effect on coordination, which accelerates the development of the child. Often the design is very simple and consists of only four boards. But you want her to be unusual and beautiful. For boys, a sandbox made in the form of a machine is perfect. It is made of plywood, and you can decorate it with a self-adhesive multi-colored film. Under the hood, you can place a box with toys, and in the cockpit with sand.

It is advisable to take care of the shadow over the playing area. It is possible to place two metal rods at a height, and an awning can be fixed on them.

Children's houses

This is the most popular element of the gaming area. Children usually don’t care what their corner is made of. They will like even in a tent made of cloth.

Children's house

If the child wants a real house, as in adults, then in this case there are many options. They are often erected using wireframe technology. To four vertical posts, strapping is fixed. The bottom will be the base for the floor, and the top for the ceiling. If you decide to make the structure high, a sandbox is usually placed below.

When the house will be located on the ground, construction can begin differently. First, concrete blocks are set according to the level, and blocks are placed on them, which are fastened into a rectangle. Vertical racks are already screwed to this frame. They will serve as a frame for the walls and support for the ceiling.

Making a slide

A quick downhill brings a lot of fun. But parents have certain difficulties because of this. Sheet stainless steel is now quite expensive, and ordinary rusts very quickly, so you have to look for an alternative. There are several options:

Children's slide

  1. Find a plastic tray somewhere. In this case, you have to adapt to the existing parameters.
  2. Make a structure of wood. It will be necessary to carefully polish the surface. And you can also sheathe it with slippery material, for example, linoleum.
  3. Pour any surface with liquid acrylic, which is used to restore the bath.

Only one slide is made very rarely. Usually this design is an element of the playground, which includes the sandbox, swings, crossbars, nets, etc.

Making a swing

There are many different models that are suitable for both kids and those who are older. To create a swing, you just need a seat and a chain or rope.

Ropes

When using ropes, their condition must be periodically monitored, since under the influence of sunlight they become not so strong and fray quite quickly.

In this regard, it is much more reliable to use chains, but they can severely pinch the skin. To prevent this from happening, you can make handles from a regular watering hose or a dense fabric.

The most popular method of attaching ropes to the crossbar is the use of carbines. But these products have disadvantages:

Swing

  1. A strong creak occurs during rocking.
  2. Items wear out pretty quickly.

Bearings can be used. This option is much better, but you have to carry out installation by welding.

The seat is made of absolutely any material. Some craftsmen even use the usual old chair.

These are the basic elements that are needed on the playground. If a children's area is made for boys, you can add a horizontal bar and rings. After all, they need to develop muscle. The work done will bring joy to the child, and adults will enjoy the result.
