Moving into our first home! I have a 3yo daughter and an almost 2yo son. We are serious outdoors enthusiasts. I want a playground that we can play on for years.
What are the benefits or drawbacks of buying prefabricated or diy?

A combination of both DIY and pre fab would best suit you. Things like slides you may want to replace as your children grow, so I wouldn't got for anything fixed while they are small. Sandpits are relatively easy to construct yourself. If you have grass you can dig out a measured patch, use a weed liner in the bottom. Sleepers can be cut and screwed together for the main structure and a lid added (made of wood that's been treated or tarp). Monkey bars and climbing ropes are something we haven't attempted at home - this is where I'd want a professional!
