I have decided to do something a bit different for my son`s birthday this year. Normally we just buy him a standard toy but this year we have decided that it would be really nice to get him a childrens sandbox for the garden. It will be great for him to have more things to play with outside. I have also decided to do a lot more work in the garden to make it into a nice place to play together as a family. I have got a lovely sandbox cover which I am going to paint a nice design on. I am also going to tidy up the lawn and try to get rid of some of the weeds to make it look better and be a nicer environment to play in. I am also going to look into some landscape edging which will make everything look really nice I think. I will get some nice garden furniture so that I can sit outside and keep a close eye on the children when they are out playing. I think that it will great to have some extra space to play in and for us to have more opportunities to be together as a family and I think that tending to the garden will be a good way to do that.
