Creating enabling and prepared environments is a passion of mine, so making toddler-friendly spaces both indoors and outdoors is something I've loved doing. Neither J, nor I are big gardeners... but we both wanted to make the garden a safe, developmentally-appropriate place for Mr 2.5 years to play in!
Last Year's Garden (2023 - 1.5 years old)
Last year's Spring and Summer were the first in our new house. The garden when we moved in was totally unsuitable for a toddler, with broken greenhouse parts, old, rotting vegetable beds, flint rocks everywhere... so we knew we needed to work hard, smart and fast to make it a safe space to play in! We did everything ourselves and sourced as much for free/cheap from Facebook Marketplace to make it as low cost as possible.
