Anyone know of any materials that could be used for this.. around a

Ive found kid kushion at 2.5" for $26 for a 2x2 tile which is good for
6 feet.. but this is really expensive, even if I did just around the
clubhouse area that would be minimally 10 tiles if not more.

Any thoughts on alternatives?

I dont really want mulch.. I'd rather have my 1 year old eating grass
than rubber or bark lol

Thanks

Pea gravel, put a heavy layer down. It seems counterintuitive but it works.

Note that sand/gravel works well only if it's fairly uniform in size.
If you use a mixed/random size fill, it will pack down like a
driveway. - Hide quoted text -

The pea gravel sounds interesting.. but yeah.. I'd rather not have a
substance that can be picked up or eaten (lol)...

Sure those rubber pads can get hot, but they are pretty durable and
convienent, but expensive IE: Kid kushion

Those are the ones I was hoping to find cheaper somehow.. or a cheap
way to "emulate" them.
