How much space do I need for a backyard playground?

Each playground has different measurements, which are listed on the product page. As a guide, allow extra room on all sides for safe play and swing clearance, and make sure there are no obstacles such as fences, sheds or trees in the way.

Do backyard playgrounds require assembly?

Most backyard playgrounds require assembly by an adult. Many can be put together by two adults with standard tools. Some products also have assembly services available in selected areas, which can be arranged after purchase.

Can these playgrounds stay outside all year?

Backyard playgrounds are designed for outdoor use. For wooden sets, regular checks, sealing and keeping them as protected as possible from harsh weather will help them last longer. Always follow the care and maintenance instructions provided by the manufacturer.

Are these backyard playgrounds safe?

Playgrounds in this collection are designed to meet Australian safety expectations when installed and used correctly. Always install according to the instructions, place the playground on suitable ground, and supervise children, especially younger kids, during play.

Backyard Playgrounds

Q: Are backyard playgrounds suitable for all ages?

Many backyard playgrounds include features for a wide range of ages, such as slides for younger kids and climbing or swinging elements for older children. Always check the recommended age guide on each product page before buying.

Find the Right Backyard Playground for Your Space

If the kids are climbing the couch, swinging off doorframes and turning cushions into obstacle courses, it’s probably time to move the chaos outdoors. Our Backyard Playgrounds are designed to give them somewhere proper to climb, slide, swing and burn off all that energy.

They’re a great option for families wanting more outdoor play, less screen time, and a backyard that actually gets used. From smaller setups for tighter spaces to larger, multi-activity playgrounds, each one is suited to real Aussie backyards and kids who don’t know how to sit still.

Choosing the Right Backyard Playground

If you’re not sure which playground will actually get used (and not ignored after a week), this should help narrow it down.

Playgrounds with Slides – a favourite for younger kids and usually the first thing they run to.
Climbing Frames – ideal for kids who love to climb, hang, test themselves and burn off energy.
Swing & Slide Combos – a good all-rounder for siblings or families wanting a few activities in one setup.
Jungle Gym Style Sets – better suited to older kids who want something more challenging and longer lasting.
Compact Playgrounds – a smart choice for smaller backyards or tighter outdoor spaces.

Everything in this collection is designed for outdoor use, real play, and everyday family life — not just to look good in photos.

Backyard Playgrounds FAQ

Are backyard playgrounds suitable for all ages?

Most playgrounds are designed to grow with your kids. Many include features that suit younger children, with climbing and swinging options that older kids will keep coming back to.

How much space do I need?

Each product page includes full measurements. We always recommend allowing extra clearance around the playground for safe play, especially for swings and slides.

Do the playgrounds require assembly?

Yes, assembly is required for most playgrounds. Many can be built by two adults, and we also offer assembly services on selected items if you’d rather not tackle it yourself.

Can these playgrounds stay outside year-round?

Yes. They’re made for outdoor use. For wooden playgrounds, regular sealing and basic care will help keep them in good condition over time.

Are these playgrounds safe?

All playgrounds are designed to meet Australian safety expectations when installed and used correctly. As with any outdoor equipment, following setup instructions and supervising younger children is important.

Shop Backyard Playgrounds by Type

Not every backyard — or every kid — needs the same setup. Browse by playground type to find what suits your space and how your kids actually like to play.
