Pencil drawing of a sports ground. How to draw a children's playground step by step with a pencil? How to draw the New Year with a pencil step by step

Childhood is the most wonderful time in a person’s life, when he learns about the world every minute, and thanks to this he develops comprehensively. Parents must provide safe and beautiful conditions for growth and development. Including, equipping the children's play area with safe materials - a playground with swings, carousels, and stairs. Moreover, perfect solution already available to everyone - rubber coating made from crumbs. Children's playground drawing for every taste.

Loving mothers and fathers know exactly what their baby needs while walking outside. The baby doesn’t just play and frolic, riding on a swing, running with friends, playing in the sandbox or choosing active outdoor activities. At this moment he makes an acquaintance with the world around him.

But what were they like until recently? They were far from the ideals of their parents. On the one hand, they could not be called beautiful - gray asphalt surface, monotonous attractions in a minimal quantity. On the other hand, adults could not vouch for the children's safety: the floor was very hard underfoot, and the carousel swings were not the most thoughtful in design.

A wonderful and exciting world for your baby!

Fortunately, today adults have very broad opportunities. They can offer their beloved child the best that humanity has ever come up with. It can be the most intricate and unimaginable - an ordinary children's playground: the pattern on the surface of the floor will decorate it, and the base will pleasantly spring under your feet, holding back impacts. And to do this, it is enough to buy an inexpensive, durable material - slabs based on rubber crumbs.

This solution is surprisingly simple and ingenious. And it’s hard to believe now that just recently parents didn’t have much choice. They could either let the child go for a walk in the yard where he came from, best case scenario, with bumps and bruises, or look for a “good site” - with sand or gravel chips. However, rubber material is incomparably better than all the above solutions. The first thing that distinguishes it is its soft surface that absorbs all impacts.

Manufacturers are ready to offer a solution for a specific area with a certain swing-stairs, taking into account the maximum height from which a child can fall. And such a fall is guaranteed to end without injury! Rubber is not a bulk material, which means it will not present other unpleasant surprises. Therefore, it wins in comparison with sand or gravel chips. But the new coating opens up another interesting opportunity - it can actually be used to make highly artistic playgrounds for children! After all, the material is made with the addition of dyes. Therefore, the territory can be in any color, and even on the floor it is possible to draw any picture.

Spectacular children's playground drawing and more.

Rubber material – perfect choice in case of implementation of grandiose projects. It can be used to make a covering for a huge territory, visually dividing the zones. For example, you can use one color to decorate a corner for kids, where there is a safe swing for them and a sandbox. There is a separate area for games for older children. Another area is where the sports equipment is located. A huge playing space will look interesting and extraordinary with the use of such a solution.

The Istimpex company will be happy to implement a large-scale project to equip a children's play area. They will also offer materials for laying in a regular yard and for building a playground for a child on a personal plot. An important advantage of a product under the Magness brand is that you can actually lay it yourself if you buy ready-made rubber slabs. And if you are working on a daring project, you can invite specialists who will make a seamless floor in an area of ​​any size and configuration.

So that children at the dacha or near the house do not explore the beds or other places where they should not be, they need a corner that is interesting to them. As a rule, parents come to the idea of ​​​​the need to create playground or a sports corner - depends on the age and desire of the children. A self-made playground is good because during its construction you can provide for the possibility of its gradual transformation. After all, what suits 2-3 year olds no longer appeals to 5-6 year olds, and even more so to older children. And besides, a do-it-yourself playground is often built not so much for reasons of economy, but rather out of a desire to please the child: who better than parents knows what your child likes... Some people need a pirate ship, and others need their own, real house with a porch, a door and all the necessary attributes.

Choosing a location

It will be a difficult task to solve. Firstly, it is desirable that the playground be viewed from the house, and from the room in which someone is most time. Ideal if the site is visible from several rooms or points. Secondly, it should be located away from outbuildings with “aromas”, if there are any. Thirdly, it is advisable to take into account the fertility of the soil: an infertile area or one with complex geology can be allocated for the gaming complex: there is no need to dig into the ground too much, maximum - bury the pillars 30-40 cm deep.

When choosing a location, it’s a good idea to place a children’s play corner near a wall or a permanent fence. These zones can quickly be fully used, and in in this case they can be used for games. For example, make a mini-climbing wall on the wall, attach rope ladders, a slate board and other devices no less interesting for children. You probably know what your children like, and if you don’t know, you can find out: there are enough fences and walls, place different devices in different areas and observe where your child lingers longer. So, find out which games he is more drawn to, and you will know in which direction to move next.

Lighting also needs to be taken into account. The place where children play should not be constantly in the shade, but the sun is also not needed. Approximately 2/3 of the area should be in the shade (, swing), and 1/3 in the sun - if there is a zone active games. If there is no shade on the site, you will have to come up with a canopy or put up a large umbrella.

At the same time, please ensure that there is no constant draft in the area of ​​the proposed site. Children, of course, need to be hardened, but not in this way. When choosing a place for a children's play area, pay attention to the fact that there are no electrical appliances or any shields, machines or other similar devices located nearby. Children are curious and inventive, so it's best not to take risks.

What area is needed

A little about the area that needs to be allocated for a children's playground. Small children don't need much space - a sandbox, a few very simple equipment, a small pool if you think it's possible. It's nice to have a lawn or a flat, smooth piece of land with some suitable covering where you can lie around to your heart's content. That's all. An area of ​​4-5 square meters is enough for all this. meters.

For small children, it is advisable to fence off the area. This will give you the opportunity not to be constantly nearby, but to do your own thing nearby: your children will be visible and safe. The fence can be anything - it’s a matter of your imagination, desire and capabilities. The main requirement is that it must be safe and durable or completely inaccessible to children. For example, like the chain-link mesh you see in the photo above. It comes with a plastic coating bright colors and it doesn’t look as harsh as the usual one.

Chain-link mesh with PVC coating is a good option for fencing playgrounds

If for some reason you don’t like this option, you can put up a picket fence that will be about the height of the children’s shoulders; the distance between adjacent planks should be such that their heads cannot fit through it. Pickets can be painted with different colors.

Picket fence - a familiar fence in an unusual design

Just make sure that the tops are rounded and do not have sharp corners, and that they are well processed: splinters are very frustrating for children. The picket fence must be secured firmly. With the expectation that children will definitely hang on them and jump.

Rope fencing is rarely used, but it looks good and performs its functions perfectly: durable, safe, and aesthetically attractive.

Rope fence for a playground - durable, inexpensive, reliable and safe

For older children, the fence is a relic. For them, the field of activity is the entire site, and only something truly interesting can distract them. More space is also needed here. If possible, give children under 7 years old 8-9 m2, from 7 to 12 years old - up to 12 m2. There is already a more serious set of shells, which is why larger areas are required.

Playground covering

This complex topic with a very difficult choice. While children are small, it is perfect for them (there is a special composition of herbs with high abrasion resistance). He is not so attractive in appearance, but he is able to endure little mischief-makers with almost no damage. The disadvantage of lawns is the need for regular maintenance: watering, mowing, etc.

For small children, the ideal surface for the playground is lawn grass.

The lawn can no longer cope with the load from the games of older children. Especially in the area of ​​active games: near slides, swings. These are the most problematic areas. If you leave these areas “as is,” then when it rains, a puddle will form under them, and after a couple of “races,” it will turn into a swamp. There is a good solution: make a drainage pad out of crushed stone, and pour sand on top of it or lay a rubber covering like what is used in stadiums. It is durable and strong.

To remove moisture from the playground area, remove the soil to a depth of 15-20 cm, fill and compact crushed stone, pour sand on top and also compact it. Both layers are approximately 10-15 cm each. During construction, you can stop there: landing on such a site is already good. But the sand is gradually being pulled away and will have to be renewed periodically. You can lay out a rubber mat. This is more serious, you just need to make a slight slope so that the water rolls off it during rain. Some people simply install rubber mats, which are replaced as they wear out.

Another solution is to fill the entire area with fine, sifted sand. It will need to be leveled and topped up periodically, but this is perhaps the most practical solution.

Sand playground covering is “quick and hassle-free”

Another option is to add crushed bark. Another question is that not everyone has the opportunity to take this bark. But if there is, try it. The coating is soft and non-traumatic. You just need to chop it well and remove any chips that may be there.

The more technologically advanced ones include the following:

  • Regupol. Factory rubber coating, laid on a flat concrete or asphalt base. Cost - $25-70 per square meter.
  • Rubber crumb coating with added binder. It is poured onto a prepared leveled area (you can use compacted sand laid on top of crushed stone). Price - $25-80 per square meter.
  • Modular high density PVC systems. Plates that are connected like puzzles. The price per square is $50-70.
  • Artificial grass. It is laid on a prepared base of quartz sand and rubber crumbs and requires water drainage. Depending on the height of the pile, it costs from $40 to $80.

It's hard to choose. There are too many mutually exclusive demands and desires, but you have to choose something. The most common option is lawn, the second most popular is sand. The remaining coatings are applied only in places - in the most “loaded” parts.

Choosing equipment for the playground

It is best to plan elements of a playground with children. After all, it is for them that you are going to build a play area, and it is their desires that you need to listen to. Often we try to reproduce what in our understanding should be interesting for them, and then we are surprised that the children play anywhere, but not on the playground that was built with such love. All because you have fulfilled your desires and expectations, not children’s. Listen to what the child wants, visit guests who already have similar facilities, see where the child spends more time. On this basis it is already possible to build something.

For children, the playground must have a sandbox. This develops their coordination and allows them to develop faster. The usual design - four boards - is not a problem to knock down, but I want it to be beautiful as well. A sandbox machine will be interesting for boys. It is made of moisture-resistant laminated plywood painted in two colors.

Under the hood is a toy box. Inside the cabin, there is also an “entrance” to this box.

In general, wooden cars are great fun for boys. They are busy there enthusiastically. another option from an old barrel.

By the way, you can also arrange a sandbox in the back...

Another one interesting idea- how to make a shadow over the playing area: fix a rod at a height, throw an awning over it, making a kind of tent. It’s not hot, and there’s shade.

Almost a ship...

Children's houses

The most popular part of a play corner among children is their own house, where they can hide from the all-seeing eye of adults and set their own rules. For children, it doesn’t matter what their house is built from. They play well in a tent made of fabric, a hut made of branches. There are many designs that are quickly and easily “built”. Moreover, even the little ones can be involved in this construction: it will be even more interesting to play in a house built with your own hands.

For example, a hut. Watch children playing. This is exactly the building that they erect most often. IN different regions they call it differently: some call it their “headquarters”, others “home”, hut, hut. They usually use sticks, blankets, and other available materials. The following several designs of houses for children were made based on this “house construction”.

The cheapest way to build a summer children's house: put several poles in a hut, plant bindweed around it and wait a couple of weeks for them to grow. This living hut can have any shape: in the form of a cone, as in the photo, a traditional hut, more like a house, etc. Tie the poles together with twine, plastic clamps or something similar. It is only important to ensure a sufficiently stable frame, otherwise naughty children may topple the structure.

In general, there is no need to wait until the plants grow. You can sew a fabric cover, make an entrance like in a wigwam... There are a lot of possibilities for using your imagination.

A quick and absolutely safe way to build a children's hut is to fasten panels of fabric to a hoop. Hang this structure, for example, on a tree. Lay out the mats under it and attach the panels to the edges. It will turn out to be an excellent summer house in which children will feel cool and comfortable.

A hut made of hoop and fabric - fast, cheap, safe

Moreover, this design is suitable not only for girls. Hang camouflage netting or camouflage fabric on the hoop. The boys will definitely set up their headquarters in it.

If your child dreams of a house like yours, there are even more options. It is usually built using frame technology: pillars are buried in the corners, and the lower and upper frames are attached to them. The lower frame is the base for the floor, the top one is the base for the ceiling. If the house is planned to be high, a sandbox is often placed below. The house located on top protects it from rain and sun.

If the house is planned at ground level, construction can be started differently. Place the blocks on which it will stand level, lay timber on them (80*80 mm or 100*100 mm), connect it into a rectangle, fasten the corners with metal overlay plates. Then attach the racks to the bottom frame in the corners, which will become a support for the walls and roof.

Some children like to have a house, just like adults: with a porch, a real door and window, a sofa... Parents have also done this more than once. The basis is the same: timber from which the frame of the building is assembled, and it is sheathed depending on desire. It’s faster to work with sheet material, such as waterproof plywood, and longer with boards or clapboard.

Slides for children

Slides are no less popular with kids. The fast descent is a lot of fun. This is where difficulties arise for parents. What to make a children's slide from? The traditional coating - a sheet of stainless steel - has now become very expensive, and leaving it on the street unattended is dangerous - it will be carried away. Ordinary steel will not work - it rusts very quickly, so you have to look for a replacement. There are several options:


Moreover, it is very rare to make a slide at the dacha or near the house. Usually this is only part gaming complex, which includes various equipment: rope and ordinary ladders with different angles of inclination, hanging paths, nets, swings on chains or ropes, poles with crossbars and, in general, everything you can think of. You will find some ideas below in the photo gallery.

A wooden slide is only part of a play corner for children at the dacha. A set of stairs, a swing with a children's slide

Swing

Hanging ones are popular not only among children, but also among adults. There are quite a few different options- from models for babies to older children. You saw some of them in the photo above. To create such entertainment, you do not need many materials: chains or ropes on which the seat will be attached.

If you use ropes, you need to regularly check their condition: they become less durable from exposure to the sun and can fray. Chains are more reliable in this regard: they can withstand heavy loads, but they pose another danger: when the chain links move, they can pinch the skin. It is very painful and results in large bruises. But there is a way out. In order to hold on safely, hoses are put on the chain in those places where they are grasped with hands. Their shell protects the hands of children and adults who swing the swing (or ride themselves).

The only problem is that curious kids love to pick at the pipes, so look at them periodically. Sometimes covers made of very high quality are used as a protective layer. thick fabric type of tarpaulin.

Questions often arise about how to attach chains or ropes to the crossbar. The most popular solution is carabiners. But they have two drawbacks: when rocking, they creak quite a lot, and they gradually wear out. The rate of wear depends on the mass of swinging children (they do not always sit on the swing alone) and on the intensity of use. Both problems can be partially solved by periodic lubrication, but only partially. The second option is to use bearings, but you can’t do without welding. See the photo below for several options for attaching the swing to the crossbar.

Where can I get such devices? In stores selling rigging. Perhaps you will find other ideas there.

The question often arises: how and from what to make a seat. Yes, from anything. Even from a tire or a piece of tarpaulin, an old chair - wooden or plastic, just a piece of board. Craftsmen manage to use an old chair.

A circle tied with ropes is a great option

An old chair on a swing - why not?

Having slightly modified them and hung them only slightly above the ground, we teach not a swing, but a simulator for developing balance. The option with a skateboard will be especially interesting for boys. And on the wide platform you can swing while sitting...

Stairs and walkways

Stairs are one of the key elements that connects all the disparate parts into a single whole, allowing you to move from one projectile to another. They are made from well-treated wood. The steps should be round (at least 5 cm in diameter so that they are easy to grasp with your hands) and straight. You can make rope steps: they are harder to climb, but they develop coordination well.

Rope climb - difficult, but very interesting to overcome

Hang a rope net on one side and make a rope ladder. It’s not for nothing that rope projectiles are present in all extreme shows. They are safe, but require well-developed coordination and dexterity. At first it’s hard for the kids, but it’s precisely these “projectiles” that they are drawn to.

A rope wall and ladder are a great way to make your play area more interesting.

Here is the basic set of elements from which children's playgrounds are assembled. For older boys, you can add a horizontal bar and rings. They already need to develop not only coordination, but also muscular strength. In general, there can be a lot of ideas. Some of them are in the photo below. We hope that the playground made by your efforts will bring joy to the children and pleasure to you: it’s always nice to look at something you’ve made with your own hands.

Since the main and priority requirement for a playground is its safety, the importance of locating the playground away from dangerous places where kids can get hurt becomes a top priority for parents. Nothing should threaten or pose a danger to their health.

When playing outdoor games, children completely forget about safety precautions, so before you let them out onto the playground, you must be absolutely sure that nothing will happen to them.

Of course, you will not be able to completely eliminate the risk of accidental injuries, because these are children and no one knows what might come to mind. But you should try your best to make sure their environment is as safe as possible.

Picking up appropriate place to place a playground, remember that your kids, especially young ones, should always be in sight. Therefore, it would be advisable to arrange a playground opposite those windows in the house where you are most often.

The distance of the site from the house should not be too great, so that if something happens you can quickly respond to the problem that has arisen.

Do-it-yourself children's slides for the dacha (photo)

Unlike a sandbox, a children's slide is a more complex structure to make with your own hands. The difficulty lies not only in the fact that its construction requires more building material, but also have a special responsibility for the safety of the structure.

In order for the playground project to meet the most stringent safety requirements during its construction, many little details and nuances will have to be taken into account:

  • Maximum height of the slide for children preschool age should not be more than 1 meter; for children over 5 years old, the height can be increased to 2–2.5 meters.
  • The angle of rise of the stairs should be within 25° - 30° degrees, the optimal width of the step is considered to be 20 - 25 cm;
  • The rubber coating of each step will significantly improve the grip on the sole and prevent the process of sliding;
  • Reliable, strong railings and balusters will not allow your child to fall from a height if at some point he loses his footing or slips.



For a quick and safe descent from the slide, it is best to use plastic slopes that have light weight and excellent coefficient of friction. Today, stores specializing in the sale of sports playgrounds will be able to offer you a huge selection of plastic slopes, both in height and in design shape (straight, screw, wavy).

This is why we buy expensive, soft, and most importantly comfortable furniture for our home. On the street you can hang a beautiful hammock, which is great for drinking a cup of coffee or reading. interesting book. But, alas, you can’t tempt children with such a vacation; they need something more than a soft sofa or a boring hammock; they are only interested in a swing.

If these are wooden or metal poles dug into the ground, then their base should be carefully positioned; if this is a tree standing near the house, the swing should only be hung on a healthy and thick branch.

A do-it-yourself playground at your dacha can also serve as an excellent place where you can set up an outdoor swing. After all, there is always a strong beam on it that can easily support your small baby.

The playground is considered important element each modern suburban area, if the younger generation lives on the territory. Purchasing swings and similar attributes is not a cheap pleasure.

It is much easier and more affordable to build a playground from scrap materials with your own hands. Let's talk about this issue in more detail.

Design process

The most important condition for creating a playground for children is to carry out the design in such a way that the structure is reliable and also as safe as possible in use.

In addition, when deciding on the construction site of the site, you need to focus on a place with excellent visibility.

In addition, the idea for a playground should not include the installation of wires and various traumatic angles at the site of children’s games. Also, the site should not be located next to a pool or river.

The place for games should be as level as possible, equipped with a soft surface that can minimize the risk of injury during an accidental fall.

When choosing suitable material to decorate a children's playground, opt for natural solid wood, which is harmless, practical, and easy to use.

Wood is also easy to process, making it possible to build any structure from it.

By painting wood crafts for the playground in a variety of shades, you can get an attractive area for active play for your children.

It is preferable to initially develop the corresponding drawings on a sheet of paper. IN project documentation be sure to indicate the expected dimensions of the parts that are planned to be placed on the site. Also determine the optimal inclined angle of the children's slide and, of course, the height.

Optimal ideas

When choosing a suitable design idea for a country playground, it is important to focus on childhood, as well as features of the location of the structure. Basically, the main element of the playground is a swing, a sandbox, and a slide.

In addition, you can build a small fairytale house, small slides. Simply put, every element of a children's playground should be interesting for kids.

Setting up a sandbox

When deciding on the location of the sandbox, focus on the following points:

  • the area must certainly be open, that is, clearly visible;
  • It is undesirable to build a sandbox under the canopy of trees to prevent debris from getting into it;
  • be sure to take care of high-quality ultraviolet protection;
  • Calculate the dimensions so that kids can move around in it as freely as possible.

As for the shape, the optimal option would be a square sandbox, which can be easily created from wood. To make sure of this, the photo of the playground is proof of this.

When choosing a natural wood, choose pine, which is considered a moisture-resistant material that can withstand solar radiation well, as well as temperature changes. Also, the resin in pine is characterized by antimicrobial properties.

The optimal dimensions of the sandbox are 200 cm by 200 cm. First you need to prepare a special area using pegs and threads. Having finished with the markings, you should slightly remove the top layer of soil. Then you can begin arranging the base in order to fill the sand.

Note!

It is preferable to cover the very bottom of the structure with dense building material. The bottom is covered with a cushion of sandy, plastic tiles.

Remember that the use of plastic film is contraindicated, since after precipitation a lot of moisture can accumulate in the sandbox, preventing the sand from drying out.

However, geotextile materials allow moisture to pass through, but do not allow various insects to enter the sand from the ground.

To cover the sides of the structure, boards should be constructed from boards. For convenience, you need to arrange the sides.

The option of arranging the sandbox with a special mushroom-shaped shelter has not been ruled out. This design will protect the structure from moisture and sun.

Decorating a place for children's games

If you are interested in how to make a playground with your own hands and how to decorate it, then remember that the use of expensive materials for these purposes is not necessary. It is enough to use a couple of cans of paint, as well as available materials.

Note!

An excellent design option is a children's playground made from tires, or plastic bottles, wheels.

So that fabulous palm trees can appear on the site, use plastic bottles, and if there are stumps, create paths. Using tires, build various interesting figures for the garden in the form of animals.

Make every effort to ensure that all parts of the playground for children perform a developmental function. This does not require much effort, just a minimum of imagination and desire.
