Nearly there got it all cleaned and planted and snagged last couple of days all thats left is the lawn once it dries up. Finally convinced a local landscape supplier to stock composted bark after bedgering him for years he gave me a good discount for it because he's shifted 2 artics of it in the last month so it's become a best seller already.
The artificial turf surprised me with it realistic looks

Not liking the fake turf but the client gets what client wants. Hagg its laid like block paving, subbase then sharp sand. Needs a timber edgeing to fix to.
Should be safe as long as you don't do this:
I think they should be encouraged: (SFW if your boss doesn't mind you looking at bouncing breasts with the nipples covered)

Trampolines are like guns they're not dangerous until an idiot gets hold of one. I think they're great play equipment for kids but they should always be enclosed and kept in good nick one of the biggest causes of attendance at A&E from household accidents is drunken adults injuring small kids on them.
I'm being converted to artificial turf in certain situations and play areas is certainly one of them it looks better than rubber matting or cold pour isn't as dirty as bark or rubber chip and can be played on in most weathers unlike grass which gets ruined and is out of bounds in the wet. All that adds up to getting the kids out of the house more since we've put the paving and play area in the kids are only in the house to eat and sleep according to the client so that's got to be money well spent. The other place the Turf works for me is small shaded gardens where grass doesn't grow well and the client has small kids or dogs that needs outdoor space without the mud. Paving it wouldn't be an option cost wise and it can when done right look close enough to a very well maintained lawn.
It's not neccesary to use a sub base unless it's getting play equipment etc on it if it was just to use like a normal lawn then the manufacturer states that it only needs the turf stripped and levelled then make up with compacted course sand and lay like a carpet ontop. All free edges need tacked if you can't tuck them under something.
