[quote=Anonymous]If you know that you will appreciate and use the backyard, I'd start there. It sounds like there's plenty of room to create a temporary play area somewhere in your main living space until your budget allows for you to redo the basement. Plus, you could put a ton of money into the basement right now and, honestly, your child will be unilikely to go down there by him/herself for at least the next couple of years. Basements are great when a child is old enough to take a couple friends down there and hang out but they don't really like going down there by themselves when they're younger. Also, older kids are unlikely to use the backyard as often. I'd put your money in the space that will get the most use right now and save up for the space that will likely have a better ROI when your child is older. [/quote]
