          This is so nice!!!

          My backyard is a HUGE HILL. I hate it. I have all kids under 3 and they struggle to get up the hill. We have about a 13x13 foot area that is flat

                Daisy Mama I have three off those tires in my yard, the previous owners had planted flowers in them, I was going to throw them out but yours is so cute painted ( mine are painted white) Maybe I should do that instead. What do you have in yours?

                  Most of our area playgrounds have tires on them. All used in various ways...

                  If you google ideas for using tires on playgrounds...all sorts of cool pictures come up!

                  Intelligent search from Bing makes it easier to quickly find what you’re looking for and rewards you.

                        I don't have a fenced in backyard, so these cute playgrounds will not be a reality for me for a really long time.

                          Thanks everyone!

                          My husband hates the tire. He says "how will we ever get rid of it?" Which is true. It weighs 300 lbs and we built the fence around it ::

                          Anyway, inside I put dirt in the area where water likes to pool and covered that with mulched hay. Right now the kids have a yoga ball in the middle of it.

                          The paint was simple outdoor spray paint from home depot. I think it was some sort of latex. Someone on this forum actually told me what to buy! It was a few years ago so I forgot what it was exactly. But it had to be painted because the kids kept coming inside covered in black tire marks.
