If you’re looking into playground turf for your backyard, or maybe your local playground or park, you might be wondering where the best place to put playground turf will be. Should it be everywhere? Should it only be in select locations, and if so, which ones? What are the benefits of playground turf that might help inform your decision of where to put it?
Our playground turf is a type of artificial grass specifically designed to be as kid-friendly as possible. It is designed to be anti-microbial, allergen-free, and static-free, which makes it incredibly safe for children to play on and be around. It can also act as a cushioned surface to protect children from falls of up to 13 feet. It is easy to clean and maintain, requiring no mowing or trimming — only regular washes with a hose, and maybe some soap or other gentle cleaners to get out more stubborn stains.
With all of this information in mind, where should you be putting playground turf in your new play area? Theoretically, you can place it anywhere you like — the turf is designed to be safe for kids no matter where, and it is resistant to getting trampled down in the way that living grass does. However, the best places would be around the edges of the playground, where children are most likely to be chasing one another and taking tumbles and might get cut up on other playground materials like wood chips and rubber. Make sure to know what the best materials are for the different areas of your children’s play area.
