I'd like to take DD into our backyard during the day so I can do a little gardening, maybe thirty minutes or so outdoors. DH recently bought a Jeep playard that has a full canopy for this purpose, but I'm not sure it's worth the cost at this point and am thinking of returning it. DD is 8.5mo, crawling, and starting to creep (I think that's the term). I know she's not ready to be outdoors with minimal supervision yet, but will we get enough use out of the playard?

Any other suggestions for how you went outdoors with a young one until they could play on their own?

And when exactly is it that they play on their own outside?
