Kids Play Set/swing Set

[snarkee]

moving to the country in a few weeks and we want to buy the little guy a swingset/play set

 

i am looking for something that has decent built quality and is around $800

 

Ive seen some wooden sets in person for around 500 and they seemed unstable.....anyone have any suggestions from their own experiences

 

thanks

Yes, get rid of the kids.

 

All kidding aside, I have seen tons of people down here with the "Rainbow play sets" I am not sure how old the kid is but they seem entertaining. I personally think it would be a good idea to incorporate the Play set for the kid that has adult or adolescent activites like zip line or wall climb on it too.

 

Here is the Rainbow play sets;

I say build your own! The material can easily be had for way less than $800 and plus you can design it yourself!

its way way way cheaper to just design and build your own...i work at a place that sells the shit for the kits and they want 90 bucks just for those plastic rock things...just build your own

if i only had the time.....i will be lucky if i have time to assemble a pre-made one lol

Get one of these, much more fun and all can enjoy it

 

We got this last yr and take the lil one to the park every few days.

IMO, i would not waste the $ on a swing set per say, but how bout a fort instead? That way instead of the kids outgrowing the swingset in a couple years, they can have a fort to use for many years to come... And you could easily attach a swing off of it ..

why not just totally dump any idea of a fixed play place and just buy the kids what they really want, mini bikes, go karts and BB guns

haha your motto must be "saftey first"

 

 

 

 

if you want a swingset, there are MANY places on the side of the road in the amish counties of pa where amish people sell sheds and swingsets that are very high quality for cheap

I see you are from the North....

 

Build an outdoor ice rink. That is what we do up here.

 

When I grew up we had a public park right across the street (was a very small suburban town). It had a softball field, ice rink, and a huge playset....slides, monkey bars, etc. The outdoor ice was used 100 times more than the others, even though it had the least amount of time. In the summer we went to the highschool and would swim in the indoor pool everyday for 50 cents.

It's not really warm enough, long enough to have an outdoor pool. Most people that have them here just sit around them and try to look important with a drink in their hand.
