If you have a decent sized yard then you actually should take a look at some children's playground swing sets. It would be astonishing for your kids to have their own playground swing set installed in their own garden or back yard. This does not just benefit your kids but it will benefit you as well knowing that your kids are playing safely at home rather playing in some local park.
Now that you have determined to add an outdoor swing set to your back yard you might as well get out a piece of paper and pencil. Make a rough sketch of your yard, and start marking in basic measurements. Make a decision on how much you want to entrust for your swing set. Once you get your basic idea of space, then you will know roughly what size unit will fit. You will be able to find simple, small swing sets, for one or two people to gently sway back and forth. Alternatively, you may choose to fill in your space with a huge unit with a number of swings or other play sets and invite the whole neighborhood over to play.
There are many shapes, sizes and styles of swings that can be used for your kids. You can find a swing that has openings for legs, and a support that small kids can stay upright in, while someone pushes to commence the swinging motion. Other items that can be put on swing sets may include a rope ladder, sliding poles, acrobat bars, and teeter-totters.
The seat of swing sets are made of various materials. You can find seats made of flexible canvas, plastic, wood, heavy vinyl, and rubberized tire treads. Any of these will work well for older children. The most ordinary backyard swing set is the use of a wood board that is hung by chain or rope from tree branches. Older children are able to swing high above the ground.
Swing set safety is top priority, it is very important to pull out the owner's manual and review with the children the rules. Children need to understand the rules so everyone can play safe. When shopping for a swing set or play structures make sure all components & accessories are engineered & manufactured to meet or exceed current safety guidelines for residential playground equipment.

Sprig Toys Trucks: EduFunToys.com Now Offers Eco-Friendly Toy Line
EduFunToys.com now offers the Sprig Toys line up of activity vehicle and toy construction vehicles. Sprig Toys best selling item is the Discover Rig – an eco-friendly toy truck. Inspired by safaris, it is designed to take kids on indoor and outdoor adventures.
As kids push the Discover Rig, the driver, called an adventure guide, lights up and sings a song. The Rig will also emit realistic engine noise. So the more the Discover Rig is pushed, the more your child will want to see and hear it.
The Cap Faraday Adventure guide comes with the Rig. He sings a song about his trek through the African Serengeti. While he sings, you can hear animal noises.
You child makes all of this electrical and recorded fun possible, no batteries are required. The wheels works like an electrical generator powering all of the activity.
It's Educational
Trucks and construction vehicles are great pretend time toys. Kids like to create their own worlds. The Discover Rig is designed to bring new worlds to your child. The story behind each adventure guide opens your child to new experiences and helps transport your child to a different part of the world. From Africa to the Arctic, then from Mt. Everest to South American and Australia. Pretend play is a critical component of child development. It helps kids develop communication and language skills. Helps them interact with other children and adults and provides a level of self-confidence. The physical activity helps them build strong core muscles. Research has shown that core muscle development is a key factor in class-room learning. Of course, when they are running around outside pushing the Discover Rig, they can’t be inside playing video games.
It's Fun
The Discover Rig is designed for fun. Its big wheels and push bar make it easy for kids to push indoors and out. Kids play with it right out of the box. The adventure guide’s helmet lights up as soon as the Discover Rig begins moving. Then just switch modes to hear engine sounds or the song. The Sprig line is designed to be expandable. The Discover Rig can hold three adventure guides. Firewire technology allows each adventure guide to clip into the driver seat and sing his (or her) own song. The manufacture states, “We help make the world a better place and we get kids off the couch. Pretty cool, huh?”
