There are so many reasons that artificial turf is a great choice for residential and commercial properties. Often parents will wonder – is it safe for kids? The truth is that not only is it safe for kids, but there are actually several reasons that it’s better for kids than grass. This is especially due in California, where we so often deal with drought. Read on to get info on five reasons artificial turf is child friendly and then reach out to All Season Turf at (866) 365-8873 to learn more about your options.

1. They can play outside every day of the year because artificial turf is strong

Playing outdoors is a healthy way for kids to stay in shape and be healthy. The bad news is that grass is often too delicate to handle rough and tumble play. This is true in California especially where we are so often under a drought, which further damages the grass. On the other hand, TigerTuf is made with a tuft bind technology that’s reinforced three times. This results in blades that aren’t going to tear out of their backing – even if your kids run, jump, and play on it every day of the year.

2. It’s very soft

Many people are surprised to learn that artificial grass is actually soft. In fact, it has a very natural feel that’s soft and cozy – not scratchy as you may be imagining. We can also add a special pad to your artificial lawn that adds cushion to your yard. Not only will it be softer in general, but it’s a better landing pad if your kids take a tumble.

3. It’s clean

When you use artificial grass, you don’t have to worry about dirt getting tracked in on the kids’ feet. You don’t have to worry about mud. You don’t have to worry about grass stains. In short, there’s no worry when it comes to cleanliness.

4. It’s non-toxic

You may be one of the people who’s shocked to learn this, but the truth is that artificial grass is completely non-toxic. It’s actually made from the same plastic that your bottles and bags are made from. It’s free of both toxins and lead. It’s also important to consider that because artificial grass doesn’t need pesticides, weed killers, fertilizers, etc., it’s actually safer for kids than grass that’s laden with chemicals.

5. It’s allergy-friendly

If a child has a grass or pollen allergy, they may be unable to play outside comfortably. That is, unless they have artificial grass! It doesn’t attract bugs either, so it’s a good choice if you have concerns about your child being exposed to insect bites or stings.
