Backyard Play Ideas

Whether you're looking for fun and easy backyard activities to do with your kids, or awesome DIY play features to add to your outdoor play space, you'll find loads of ideas here.

Here in my daycare, I love to come up with simple but amazing ways for my daycare kids to explore, learn and create in the backyard. My passions are nature crafts and art activities with items found in nature, messy and muddy play, fun and educational sensory bins and water activities, and making amazing, inexpensive play features for our play space are my passion. And because we're in Canada, I love to come up with creative snow play ideas too.
