Certainly a hot topic. Emma Lou, would you be able to install a sand pit? we have a cheap wooden one from B&Q on our plot and junior loves it. it has a rain proof cover so we can keep small toys in there permanently. As for your littl'un, i know you have to have eyes in the back of your head, but on taking on a second plot this month, i took junior by the hand, showed him the boundaries, explained how important it was not to go outside the boundaries without permission. showed him the gooseberry bushes, told him what they were and what we do with the fruit, but also explained that they are very spikey, showed him the thorns, and told him to be careful whilst playing around them. i basically spent an hour spelling out the 'rules of the plot'. he seemed to understand, and has certainly stuck to the rules. sometimes its easy to forget that toddlers need every detail explaining to them (repeatedly, cos they do forget). and when he is naughty, we have a naughty chair! the other plot holders love him being around, and ask about him when he's not there. i don't think he has upset anyone, including the allotment neighbour he asked if he was a scarecrow!!!hope this helps!
