Looks like I built my self a nice rock garden! Kidding Aside, I had
to do somethng quick. Ther are kids running around in my yard all the
time and the last thing I want is for someone to fall into the hole.

I understand.

Maybe it's not too late to fill with gravel small enough to get past
the boulders, and dirt.

Is there a bottom to the hole? Does the water run out the bottom or
not. If it seems out the bottom, maybe you can wash the gravel in
with a garden hose, and use the hose lightly to fill up the rest of
the niches with dirt. So the process doesn't take years but days.
But I don't know.

You'll use less of anything you add now because the boulders will take
up so much space.

forever be leaking between boulders and sinking.

with plain dirt sprayed with water and compacted.
