3 Ways to Make Mowing Fun Again

Make Mowing Fun Again

Has mowing the lawn become just an inconvenient chore you dread every week or so?

Remember when it used to be fun? Or maybe it was only worth it as a kid when the neighbor would hand over a crisp $5 bill for an hour’s work.

Well here are three ways you can get a kick out of mowing, so it’s always something to look forward to every time you step out on the lawn.

1.) Set Your Own Lawn Speed Record – Time Yourself

It’s a race against time! See how fast you can mow your lawn (safely), then try to beat it every time.
*Rule: Add 10 seconds for every patch of grass you miss.

2.) Lawn Art – Create Your Backyard Masterpiece

If straight rows are becoming way too boring, try mowing a unique pattern in your grass with a lawn striping kit. Smiley faces are extra credit.

*Recommendation: Draw the pattern on a sheet of paper first, before you start to mow.


3.) Epic Modifications – Pimp Your Mower

Whether it’s a custom paint job, wheel spinners, or flame thrower exhaust (not recommended), you could customize your mower and ride in style.
