Outdoor Playpen?

My 10 month old is not yet walking but crawling fast and pulling up. I'd like him to be able to spend time with us and his 3 year old sister in the backyard but I can't let him crawl on the grass as he eats it. Anybody seen or made an outdoor playpen they like? Is there such a thing? He's too big for a pack n play and won't stay in an exasaucer.

OMG I just saw the most amazing thing when we went camping a couple of weeks ago. Unfortunately I don't know the name of the thing, but a group of people in the campground had about 6 babies among them, and one of them had brought this massive plastic fence playpen structure thing, and they put a tarp under it and it was like this daycare for kids at the campground. It was so cool and such a great idea. (My kids are long past that, however.)

So the thing exists, but maybe someone else can tell you what it's called.

I agree with the previous poster - the SuperYard expandable plastic enclosures are great and you can just put a tarp or blanket under it to keep your little one from grabbing the grass.

Hi S.,

Get a large expandable play yard-- and then put some large blankets down on the grass to cover-- Your baby will be able to explore but still be safe.
