The best ground cover depends on your budget, yard size, and comfort level. Families in Loveland, Mason, West Chester, Lebanon, and Batavia often choose from three reliable options:

• Rubber mulch – soft underfoot, absorbs impact well, and lasts for years without breaking down.
• Pea gravel – an affordable choice that drains easily and creates a stable play surface.
• Engineered wood fiber – tightly packed wood chips that provide a cushioned base while meeting safety standards for playgrounds.

Each option helps create a safe backyard space where kids can swing, slide, and play with less risk of injury. Among these, SLRM Rubber Mulch is a popular pick for backyard playsets because it combines safety and durability for years of fun.
