Subject : outdoor activities?

im guna post this in baby and toddler as im not sure where is best.
due to being pregnant with a rather large baby and having spd and it being freezing cold outside, i dont want to walk the 20 minutes to the park with tegan but also dont want her being stuck in the house bored, so was wondering if you can recommend some good outdoor toys? possibly a small activity thing with a slide? something along those lines, im willing to spend upto £100 but would rather have something cheaper. she already has a swing but she wud rather be climbing and doing other things. any suggestions would be great, thanks in advance :) xxx

We bought Ollie a little tykes activity cube with a slide on it - its only small so doesnt take up too much room and he loves it. he can climb up the sides and into it from the back, he can crawl under it.....
we got ours 2nd hand off ebay for about £35 but they cost £80 brand new...

or there is this one:
http://www.littletikes.co.uk/product.php?filterorder=C&search=&agemin=0&agemax=0&gender=&range=0&cat=6&itemid=208&returnurl=%2Fsearch.php%3Ffilterorder%3DC%26search%3D%26agemin%3D0%26agemax%3D0%26gender%3D%26range%3D0%26cat%3D6%26page%3D-1

which is cheaper and easier to store.

Hi Stephe

Poppy got one of these from an aunt for Christmas - it's still in the box but I was just wondering how big they are?? Her aunt says it's suitable for indoor use too but I'm guessing you'd have to have a huge lounge??

Which one - the cube?
its big but not that big, but we couldnt have it inside our house, it'd take up too much room. If i guessed at it being about the size of a patio table type thing...... a huge lounge would be a must! :lol;

The same one that you put on your link. It looks fab but our garden is being done in the spring so for now it's in the garage.
Her aunt does have a huge lounge - it's probably the same size as the entire downstairs of my house!! I guess it'll have to stay in the box till the garden is done then!!
Thanks

I don't know about the fold away one, but it looks big when you look at the size/ages of the children in the pics (and the mum) so I'd guess its still pretty big.....

the dimensions given are:
Product Size: 210cm L x 84cm W x 126cm H
Box Size: 61cm L x 30cm W x 122cm H
but I've no idea which is the size of the actual frame.....

sorry not much help.
