Description
A grassy backyard area with two children standing barefoot near a small plastic bowl placed on the ground. One child is wearing a light-colored top and striped shorts, while the other wears dark shorts. The backyard is enclosed by a chain-link fence, with a playground set, including a swing and climbing bars, visible on the left. A black outdoor chair is positioned near the fence. In the distance, single-story houses are scattered throughout the residential neighborhood. The ground appears slightly damp, suggesting recent water play.
