Posted by Linda Hudson on June 3rd, 2019

Whether you are dreaming up a terrific DIY swing set to build for the little ones or you are just looking to surprise your kids with a new fun thing, it is a good idea to enlighten yourself with different types of swings and its accessories available. We have come up with the details of different type of swings you can add to your swing set for your little ones. So let us take a quick look at different types of swing sets:

  • High Back Full Bucket Swing

It is considered as your child’s first swing. It is designed to securely and safely hold an infant, and the swing encloses the child 360 degrees and comes with plenty of back support. You will get several years out of this swing, as it is ideal for infants and toddlers. This swing is recommended for children of 6 months to 4 years of age, depending on the size of the child.

  • High Back Half Bucket Swing with Chain

This half bucket swing with chain is an amazing transitional swing for your children and also offers the same support like the full bucket swing in features of high back, but this swing comes with a safety chain in front. This safety chain will help your kid get the real feel of the swing, while providing an additional safety precaution. The recommended age range for this swing ranges between 2-6 years of age.

  • Sling Swing

This classic swing is what you and your kids might have seen often on your trip to public parks. This strong and superior quality swing can handle your children and even most adults.

  • Horse Glider Swing

Unlike all the swings elaborated so far, that accommodate a single child at a time, the horse glider swing is made for two. The kids can sit back to back on the swing seat. There are handle bars for holding on and enough room for the children to place their feet. 

To ensure maximum safety, it is recommended to purchase swing sets made of durable polymer plastic. In this regard, Lifetime swing sets are gaining in popularity because of their powder-coated steel, making it much sturdier than wood. For instance, Lifetime monkey bar adventure swing set provides foot wavy slide that can create memories for your kid. However, your kids might also love playing outdoors with Lifetime A-frame Swing Set as it will be a perfect blend of both fun and learning. So what’s your choice?
