  • safe

  • flexible design

There are several ways to enhance the children's enjoyment of playing in the garden, for example by installing a sandpit, swing, trampoline or tree house. It is important that the children can be easily seen from the living room or kitchen window. An area of shade is essential when it is hot outside. This can be created by applying taller planting or by installing a canopy with sun protection. Hard surfaces and sharp edges should preferably be avoided. The use of water features is not recommended when children cannot yet swim. Children's safety is also taken into account when choosing plants.

Family gardens have a flexible design. This means that the garden can be easily adapted to the changing needs of the family.
