What if I just want to entertain my kids?
Good question! If you’re prepared to put your DIY skills to the test – I have a perfect solution: build a mini obstacle course in your garden! You don’t need fancy stuff – just use your imagination and stuff you already have in your house! Few bricks can become high stepping stones, pop-up tunnels can be a part of the course too!
