What is pooping in our garden?

Can you help, please?
We are not long in this house and this was going to be our first summer to use our garden. I was searching on google but still not sure what is pooping in our garden. The garden is full of it. I thought it's cats but pics i saw doesnt look the same really. I just want our kids to play freely and to be able to do some gardening 😔

You’ll usually see it happen most in the autumn and winter when the soil is wet.
It’s only soil so you can
simply use a spring tine lawn rake to spread them about and then mow your lawn and your children can enjoy your garden without any worries.

I hope you and your family are very happy in your new home 😊
PS just a tip ... mow your lawn on medium height once a week rather than cutting it shorter but less frequently. Doing as I suggest will help your grass to thicken up and become lush and green. 😊

I feel the darker one looks the same as the lighter just not dry.
Do the worms lift the soil so high?
Here some closer look:
Using the rake to remove the underlying dead brown grass (thatch) before mowing will also encourage your grass to grow thick and healthily.
