    • Made me want to build a park in my backyard
Although there were ideas in the book I know will never be used, there are a lot of ideas to help develop a safe haven for the entire family, not to mention the children who will play, dream, have adventures and dream more. I purchased the book to help my son with ideas for outdoor play for his son. As I purused (and that's all I did) the pages, the directions seemed to be simple, suggestions were given and warnings for things to be sure to remember to do or to look for were given too. Hope to see some of the ideas become realities for my grandson. ... show more

    • mostly ideas and photos, no datailed plans
You will not find detailed plans. Has nice photos from several angles, sometimes sketches. No material lists. Most cases you have to figure out how to build the project. Still, the book is OK with very nice ideas.

    • Don't keep looking, buy this!!
I love this book. Ordered it used and it's in excellent shape. I'm glad I bought it used and saved a ton of money. It got here fast too. And the best part is this book is everything I wanted and then some. It has given me more ideas and it gives great step by step instructions. I can't wait to get building!!!! Thanks! ... show more

    • General Guide
This book is a good general guide for backyard ideas. The pictures were great and clearly showed what was being described. Some of the explanations for building were detailed, but most were a little general. I would've liked more details about some of the projects. I think I was hoping for more treehouses than playhouses. Still a good book which perfectly fits its Amazon product description. ... show more

    • Just another "How to" Book
The plans were generally too elaborate for most backyard builders. There were a few good ideas, but I am pretty handy and I would not have undertaken most of the projects they show.

    • Great pictures
I'm trying to find ideas on how to fit a play area in our small yard. This book is so inspirational to me! I can't wait to get out and plan something for my kids. Great ideas!
