Safety is of utmost importance for children's play areas. Children are full of energy and mischief, so it doesn’t take much for them to get in trouble’s way. This is why STM produces durable and securely attached surfaces such as artificial grass which make for a child-friendly and safe environment to play in. 

With most play areas, there is the element of natural wear and tear from excessive use as the little ones run and play around. Therefore, it would be ideal to always keep these surfaces looking and feeling fresh and inviting. That is why we design artificial grass to look and feel like natural grass but with a bit of flair and high durability. 

Safest children play surface

When we design artificial grass for play areas at STM, we consider durability, safety and aesthetics. The end product that you receive should be a reflection of all these three important aspects. Furthermore, we can install the artificial grass with high-performance shock pads under the grass to allow for increased cushioning ability while greatly reducing the chances of injury when a kid falls. 

Durability 

We take pride in designing and manufacturing resilient and hard-wearing artificial turf to ensure that kids make the most of their time playing outdoors. You won't have to worry about constant maintenance since all our products come with water-resistant latex backing. The latex backing is instrumental in allowing water to seep through without clogging. 

Some play area ideas

There is a way of designing a play area to ensure that kids make the most of their time there, making it not only accessible but also fun and exciting. This ensures that children of all ages play together since there is something for everyone. 

Creating a bespoke play area means creating a space that will enable children to have fun but at the same time help them develop their cognitive skills. In order to achieve this, there are a few amazing ideas that you can keep in mind. If you manage to incorporate some or all of these ideas, you would have managed to create a child-friendly play area. They are: 

• Running Tracks

• Playground Sports Markings

• Targets

• Hopscotch

• Trim Trail Marking

• Wooden Trim Trails

Furthermore, you should understand that the colours, markings and features are key to what goes in the play area. Therefore, it would be best to add a few details while separating the play area into sections. This goes a long way in boosting creativity and imagination. Some of the important purchases you can make include: 

• High-quality artificial grass (Astro Turf)  for play areas to ensure it looks inviting.

• Themed design for markings early years areas, phonics, shapes, letter and numbers

• Theming the play area according to age group
