We planted clover; it blooms (great for pollinators), spreads fast, is very comfy to sit on, absorbs shock better when you fall on it, has a max length that’s much shorter than grass, so you don’t really need to mow the lawn unless you prefer it short and leaves less space for other undesireable plants to grow, while not needing much water to stay green (saving water). It’s pretty great honestly!
Little fact: clover is edible, so if you feel like eating clover nectar, you’ll be able to. I know some people might find that weird, but it tastes very good, which is why many farmers let their bees collect clover nectar to make their honey (it makes sweet/tangy delicious honey, due to how sweet clover nectar tastes to begin with).
You don’t eat the leaf of it, you pick the petal and suckle the nectar out… it’s one of the rare flowers that you can eat the nectar of. Also if you ever ate broccoli and cauliflower, congratz, you ate a flower, like a cow would.

I’ve always wondered what it must be like to be a cow and just eat the floor
