New Landscape Makes a Yard Feel New Again


Artificial Grass Simplifies Your Life As A Parent

You might think of artificial grass as being for luxury homes and football fields. But with artificial grass becoming more common, a wider demographic is beginning to enjoy and recognize its benefits. For instance, artificial grass has a lot of advantages for busy parents, including the following.

You don't have to spend time on lawn care.

When you have kids, you just want to spend more time with them. Even an extra hour or two per week can give you an opportunity to play board games, toss a ball around, or take a walk in the park. With artificial grass, you can stop mowing and watering your lawn. You can instead dedicate that time to caring for your kids and having fun together as a family.

You don't have to worry about mud and grass stains.

Your kids play outside for a few minutes. Then, they come in needing a bath and a change of clothes before they can do anything else. Does this scenario sound too familiar? If so, you may want to make the switch to artificial grass. Your child will be able to play directly on the grass without getting dirty or muddy. The artificial grass will get wet when it rains, so you will want to keep your kids off it until it dries. But as long as it's dry, playtime should be clean.

You don't have to worry about grass allergies.

Are any of your kids allergic to grass pollen? It's a common allergy and one that's really hard to manage as a parent, as kids often want to play in the grass. With artificial grass, you can let your kids play outside on the lawn without them being exposed to very much grass pollen. There may be a tiny bit around from neighbors' lawns, but not nearly as much as there would be if you had your own grass. You may be able to give your kids fewer doses of allergy medications, and there should be less itching and sneezing around the home.

An artificial lawn tends to be a good choice for your yard when you have kids. Talk to a landscaping company that installs artificial turf, and see what they have to offer. They can measure your space, ask you a few different questions, and give you a quote. With an actual quote in hand, you can better decide whether this is the right approach for you.

For more information, contact a local company, like Broadmoor Landscape Supply.

About Me

New Landscape Makes a Yard Feel New Again

Hi. My name is Martha. My husband Leo and I are empty nesters. The last of our three kids moved out of the home about eight years ago. Since that time, we have talked a great deal about retirement and what we wanted to do with our house. The house is slightly too large for just the two of us, but we already have two grandchildren and from the way our kids talk, we are in for plenty more. We have decided to stay in our home since it has plenty of room for our family to come and stay with us from time to time. The one thing we really wanted to change is the backyard. Leo retired last year, and I’ll be retiring in about six months. We are already talking with the landscape contractor, and I’m excited to share some of our plans with you!
