School’s Out: Creative Ways to Use Your Garden with Kids (Without Losing Your Mind)
The school holidays are officially here up and down the UK - and if your living room has been taken over by toys, crumbs, and chaos, it might be time to reclaim your outdoor space.
But your garden doesn’t have to be perfect this summer, it just needs to work for you and your family.
Here are a few ideas to turn it into a summer hub, without spending a fortune or running an impromptu holiday club.
1. The Morning Moment
Start your day outside with a cup of coffee before the madness begins. Our bright bistro sets give you a stylish, but calm spot to ease into the day.
2. At-Home Picnics
Let the kids help prep lunch and take it outside. Use our waterproof cushion sets in a range of fun colours to scatter on the grass, add a blanket and a tray for a fuss-free and fun picnic,
3. Firepit Nights
Extend the evening with toasted marshmallows and stories by the firepit. Add warm throws and our rechargeable LED mushroom lamps for a bit of magic.
4. DIY Forts or Movie Nights
Give them the cushions, the throws, and a parasol, and let imagination take over. Add a projector or tablet for a makeshift outdoor cinema.
5. Quiet Time (Yes, Really)
Create a reading corner or drawing nook outside. The change of scenery alone can buy you 20 minutes of peace.
