Turn Your Backyard Into a "Family Park"

In summertime, I find that a house is always the happiest when it is full of friends and family, who always seem to migrate to the backyard. If you want to really enjoy your kids, it’s hard to do it when they’re in front of a video game or an iPad.

The real summer memories are created at your own home together while having FUN! If you want to have fun, you need to make your house fun for your kids and you. There are a gazillion things you can add to your home for toddlers to teens that will keep them home and spending time with you and staying active is just another plus. Hmm.

When I was a kid, we had a tree house. Nowadays, playhouses are amazing and affordable. This is definitely the best way to keep your kids amused for hours. It feels like a park only better. My kids adore theirs and I know we will get a ton of use out of it.
