Default I need a new lawn!

At the moment mine is half dirt and half grass some of it knee high! We have a dog and 3 children, the dog had graced the garden with a few holes as well and we also have a trampoline the children like to use.

So is turf really expensive? Could I reseed the lawn in batches and put fencing around it? Or should I just strim flat what we have and then leave the growing till autumn?

Any ideas gratefully received I think the patch of lawn is about 10' x 12' roughly, we have more garden but it's herb bed, greenhouse, patio, pond and the bits we're clearing now will be veg bed, chicken place and some flowers...oh and another pond! I would just love to be able to take the baby out, put a blanket down and let her play outside but at the moment I just don't dare!

Thanks
