Buy Artificial Grass With Confidence

Children play harder on a lawn than anything else. The grass has to keep up.

Family gardens with children face a specific combination: daily intensive use, the need to stay safe and comfortable underfoot, and enough visual quality that the garden is somewhere adults want to spend time too. The grasses in this range have been assessed for exactly that balance.
The concerns are different when children are involved: how soft is it underfoot when they’re playing barefoot, how does it perform on the hottest summer days, and will it still look good after two years of daily use. A grass that looks impressive in a showroom but flattens within eighteen months of child use is the most common family garden regret.

We don't stock hundreds of grasses. And that's deliberate.

Every grass has to pass three standards before it earns a place — and most don’t.

Resilience by Design

Flat fibres make lawns look fake. We check density so yours stays upright. For family gardens with children, we specifically assess fibre density and pile structure for recovery after intensive daily play — not just performance on installation day.

Real-World Comfort

All grass warms in the sun. We’ll tell you honestly which ones suit south-facing gardens. For family gardens, we look at surface temperature behaviour, cushioning underfoot, and how the grass feels when children are sitting and playing directly on it.

Natural Appearance Filtering

We avoid shiny, flat, artificial-looking grasses — even when they’re cheaper. For family use, a grass that looks natural is one the whole family wants to spend time in — not just one that photographs well.

If it doesn’t meet our standard, it doesn’t make our range. Simple as that.

What Makes Artificial Grass Safe for Children?

All grasses in our range are made from non-toxic, child-safe materials — the fibres and backing are safe for direct skin contact. Beyond material safety, the practical factors for families are surface temperature on hot days, cushioning underfoot for play, and whether the surface stays soft after heavy use. Lyra is our softest Everyday grass, assessed specifically for families with young children who play directly on the lawn. The Signature Range offers maximum resilience for the most demanding family use.

 

Which Artificial Grass Is Best for High-Use Family Gardens?

If your garden gets intensive daily use from children, Halo is our recommendation. 40mm pile, 25,200 stitches per m², bio-based backing — built for the kind of daily play that tests a lawn properly. For families who want natural appearance as much as durability, Vela at 35mm is the balanced Signature choice. If softness underfoot for young children is the priority, Lyra in our Everyday Range is specifically assessed for this. The honest answer: order samples of two or three options and test them underfoot in your garden before deciding.

 

Does Artificial Grass Get Too Hot for Children in Summer?

In sustained direct sunlight, artificial grass warms up — as do paving, decking, and natural stone. For most UK family gardens and most of the year, heat isn’t a day-to-day concern. For south-facing gardens with full summer sun, lighter-toned grasses with natural colour variation perform better than dark, dense alternatives. Providing shaded areas and a light water spray cools the surface quickly on the hottest days. If heat is a specific concern for your garden, call us — we’ll give you an honest assessment.

 

How Long Will It Last With Children Using It Daily?

A well-chosen artificial grass, correctly installed, will typically last 10–15 years under normal family use. The variable that matters most is whether you’ve chosen the right grass for the intensity of use. A Signature Range grass chosen for a heavily-used family garden will outlast an Essential Range grass in the same situation by years. Every grass in our range comes with a 10-year guarantee. Brush with a stiff rake regularly to keep fibres upright and the surface looking its best.

Can Children Play Sports on Artificial Grass?

Yes — artificial grass is an excellent surface for casual family sports. For garden football, cricket, and general active play, Halo and Echo are the most practical choices. Halo for maximum resilience, Echo for the most hardwearing Everyday performance. For dedicated sports areas with intensive use, see our Sports page for specific guidance.

FAQs

Yes. All grasses in our range use non-toxic, child-safe materials. The fibres and backing are safe for barefoot contact and direct play. Children can play on it safely.
In sustained direct sunlight it warms up, as do all outdoor surfaces. For most UK gardens and most of the year it’s not an issue. Shaded areas and a light water spray on the hottest days are sufficient precautions. Call us for specific guidance on south-facing gardens.
Lyra is our softest Everyday grass — assessed specifically for families with young children who play directly on the surface. For maximum resilience combined with comfort, Halo or Vela in the Signature Range.
Not if you’ve chosen the right grass for the level of use. Signature Range grasses are built for intensive daily family use. Everyday Range grasses handle regular family use well. The wrong choice is an ornamental grass in a heavily-used family garden.
Yes — it’s one of the most common applications. Easy to clean, safe underfoot, and it stays green regardless of how hard it gets used. For play areas with climbing frames or trampolines, consider a foam shockpad underlay — it adds cushioning and conceals uneven surfaces.
Brush regularly with a stiff rake to keep fibres upright. Remove debris and rinse as needed. For food and drink spills, a light wash with mild detergent and water. Artificial grass requires significantly less maintenance than natural lawn.
It depends on how the space is used. For active play, Halo at 40mm or Lyra at 40mm. For a garden that also needs to look tidy, Vela at 35mm. For a contemporary garden where children play, Elia at 25mm with full Signature durability. If in doubt, order samples of two options and test them.
Measure the longest point in each direction and add 100mm as a trimming allowance. For irregular shapes, measure as a rectangle. Our measuring guide walks through the calculation. If in doubt, call 01245 931200 before ordering.
