Playgrounds for cottages. Options for registration

If you spend a lot of time with children in the country, you should take care of creating full-fledged conditions for them. The presence of a platform with various game attributes will make a vacation in nature not only useful, but also joyful. We must certainly be attracted to this process and children themselves. First, it will bring for them a lot of positive emotions. Children will have the opportunity to embody their creative ideas that will contribute to their development. Another positive point of the involvement of children in the process of creating and designing the platform is the cohesion of the family. After all, the joint implementation of any work contributes to the union. On how to make such a corner on the plot we will tell in this article.

Selection and preparation of the place

The design of the playground involves three stages:

1. The first provides for the selection of a suitable place and perform certain actions aimed at creating safe conditions.
2. At the second stage, placing on the site of all game elements.
3. The final stage is the most pleasant and creative - this is a design.

Placing a playground is desirable to foresee in the dacha design stage. But if in the process of creating a project, this stage was missed, the following points should be taken into account for the right choice:

• the playground should be in sight from any point of the site, as a permanent supervision is necessary for young children;
• near the reservoirs and places where the child may be injured;
• if possible, the site can be placed near large trees so that the shadow of the foliage protect the game space from sunlight. If there are no suitable trees on the plot, then you can create a shadow above the site with a canopy or tensioning agent;
• do not choose a low-end site or a plot on the elevation to arrange the site. In the first case, dampness will create a danger to the health of children, and in the second - the obstacle will be a strong wind;
• the selected plot needs to be made as safe as possible to stay on it. It is necessary to outline the places where the slides will be located, swing and other elements and cover the sand and turf there. If there are potholes and pits at this place, you need to pre-get rid of them. Problem areas should be filled and tamper. Next, it is necessary to wait until the soil shrink will occur, and lay a layer of turf.

It is also worth considering that for tracks it is recommended to use a paving slave. It is quite durable and non-slip material, which is very important for playgrounds. If desired, water communication and electricity can be paved on the game territory. Of course, they must be hidden and inaccessible to children. For example, a variant of laying communications on the tree trunk is possible at a sufficiently safe distance.

Basic elements of the playground

One of the most sought-after elements in the design of the playground is slides. They are divided into two groups:

1. The first group includes facilities intended for children up to three years. They are light designs of small sizes that are fairly easy to transport. Such slides can be carried in the car. Such slides for children consist of the following elements:

• they have a gentle descent with a smooth bottom. It provides a child safely using a slide and helps to avoid injury;
• also, the design is equipped with a wide staircase having an anti-slip coating;

• next, crushed stone is poured into the resulting deepening;
• after that, this area should be shredding the side, which can be made from ordinary one-piece logs;
• now you can fall asleep sand and sandbox is ready.

The traditional version of the sandbox is a square tin fencing. But the playground is the place where all non-standard ideas can be implemented. From this stereotype you can move and make a sandbox of any other form. The more original ideas in the design, the greater the interest of the site for the games will cause a child.
