Heading into the brighter, sunnier months means one thing and one thing only: it’s time to get your outdoor space in tip-top shape.
Your garden should be a place of tranquillity, somewhere you can sit back and relax, host your friends and family, somewhere to let the kids run free or escape the hustle and bustle of the house for some peace and quiet.
What makes a perfect sanctuary for you will depend on many things, but here are 9 ways you can make your outdoor space work for the whole family:
For The Children
Lockdown has brought many challenges as well as a significant decline in services, especially for children. Considering the hours children spend indoors both at home or at school, it can be challenging to encourage them to go outside and enjoy the fresh air.
There are numerous benefits to spending time outdoors so it is important to provide them with exciting activities and tools to get into the garden.
1. Install A Climbing Frame
A staple for every playground, climbing frames not only provide endless hours of fun but have a range of benefits for children.
They encourage children to use their imaginations while allowing them to take risks and learn essential life skills in a controlled and safe environment. Playing on a climbing frame can also encourage physical activity, boost confidence and improve dexterity.
2. Add A Playhouse
There is no better way to nurture creativity than letting your children immerse themselves in hours of make-believe. Let them get lost in their own head, in their own space: a cosy playhouse.
Having their own space to play in or just somewhere to hang out can help them gain more confidence, feel more independent and develop their creativity at the same time.
3. Install Educational And Sensory Equipment
Children explore the world around them using their five senses. Sensory play has been proven to help build nerve connections in the brain, develop essential motor skills, support language development, encourage critical thinking, problem-solving and even help them learn about mindfulness at an early stage.
To help their sensory development along, why not install educational and sensory equipment in your own back garden? It will provide hours and hours of entertainment, with the added benefit of learning something new.
Ballycastle Climbing Frames & Sheds can create bespoke safe alternative climbing frames and playhouses for children of all abilities including purpose-built sensory studios, manufactured right on the north coast from scratch and installed in the safety of your own garden!
As part of Ballycastle Climbing Frames & Shed’s Spring Bundle Offer, you can transform your garden and keep the children entertained for hours with their own (16x14feet) Climbing Frame.
For Busy Adults
When life gets busy, you need your home to be a sanctuary where you can switch off and relax. If you find yourself craving some extra space, no matter how big or small your home is, investing in an outdoor studio might be the answer you are looking for.
4. Set Up An Outdoor Home Office
While there are many benefits to working from home, including the time and money you can save on the commute, increased flexibility and the possibility to work anywhere in the world from the comfort of your own home there comes a point where you need to separate your home from your office.
An outdoor studio to use as an office space can be just the thing you need to have the best of both worlds, an office just a few steps away from your home and a quiet space where you can focus.
5. Set Up A Home Gym
Exercise is important, we all know that, but going to the gym can feel more like a chore if you have to do it after a long day. Working out at home is a great alternative to travelling to a crowded gym, but all the equipment can take up a lot of space.
Setting up your own, private gym in your back garden means there are no more excuses!
6. Open A Beauty Salon Or Therapy Room
If you have outgrown your living room, or don’t want to use your home as your place of business, you might want to consider setting up your professional beauty salon or therapy room in the comfort of your own garden.
The fully insulated outdoor studios offer a professional setting for serious small businesses and give you and your clients the privacy they need to relax and destress.
As part of Ballycastle Climbing Frames & Shed’s Spring Bundle Offer, you can create an aesthetically pleasing room fit for any purpose with a bespoke Garden Studio.
For The Entertainers
7. Build A Home Bar
Who wouldn’t want to have their own fully stocked bar right in their own garden? An ice-cold beer, cocktails, mocktails, soft drinks, whatever your choice of drink, it tastes much better when you have someone to share them with.
An outdoor studio, kitted out as your private fully stocked bar, where you can hang out with friends, have a few drinks, maybe watch a game could be the addition your home needs this summer.
8. Kit Out The Outdoor Dining Area
Having family and friends over when the weather is nice is one of the best ways to spend your weekends, but scrambling to find enough chairs to sit on and guests having to balance drinks and plates on their laps can put a damper on the fun.
If you are serious about hosting fabulous garden parties it might be time to invest in high quality, sturdy and aesthetically pleasing garden furniture that will last you years.
Ballycastle Climbing Frames and Sheds has a wide range of garden furniture including rattan furniture, egg chairs and wooden tables and chairs to make your outdoor area stand out.
