Barbeque for party A barbeque is essential. Don't forget it needs plenty of time to warm up. Cooking through is essential but it is all too easy to overcook. The ideal is just enough. Don't mix tongs used for uncooked meat with those for cooked or you transfer bugs.

Flowers for that garden party Flowers are a lovely way to welcome your guests and make them feel happy. As a backing to the food display they enhance the atmosphere rather well.

A trampoline for a garden partyA trampoline just cannot be resisted by young children. It must be supervised and ensure only 1 child at a time. For maximum safety use the special guard fence to prevent a child falling off. Bad injuries can happen if left unsupervised.

Croquet for a garden partyCroquet keeps players happy for hours. A simple set needs 4 mallets and 4 balls, centre peg and hoops.

Archery for a garden party Archery is an ancient art and much appreciated by the young adult. Take safety very seriously keeping everyone away from the range arrows might reach.

A bouncy castle for that garden party Bouncy castles and other inflatable play areas for children are a simple entertainment that keeps them happy.
