Well, at least the snow is melting. That means spring is around the corner, right?

After the terrible winter storms of 2014, it may not feel like it, but Spring is coming! It’s time to jazz up your backyard equipment with new accessories. This includes your swing set.

Accessories Liven Up Your Swing Set and Add Long-Term Investment

Swing sets and other backyard equipment can take a real beating during the winter. Long months of wetness accumulating on plastic and metal can take a toll. They can look used and beaten if you live in a part of the country with brutal winter weather.

Every year I try to add at least one new accessory to our swing set. Why? It’s amazing how much fun we have installing a new piece of equipment for my daughter. Plus, she is always reminded just how much she has missed swinging on her swing set.

Swinging is a timeless activity for children. It’s one of the few toys/activities that we have in our home that she continues to love, year after year. Children lose interest in many toys after only one season. And I know that a day will come when she no longer spends hours each week on her play set, but it won’t be for quite a long time. And even then, it will probably taper off slowly. So I think of buying new accessories as an easy investment in all the fun hours she will have for many, many years.

Add new Accessories to Your Swing Set

Only you know what accessories you’ll need this year, but a few to examine for potential spring swing eventhazards are: safety handles, ductile iron swing hangers and chains on your swings.

The longer it’s been since you replaced these items, the more likely you are to need replacements.

Naturally, we have guarantees on our accessories and if they are relatively new, they should be fine. However, organic wear and tear, along with severe weather can take a toll, so we recommend that you do a safety inspection each year.

Once you’ve determined if any of your safety items need replacing, consider something for fun to add into the mix.

Swing Set Accessories for Older Children

Kids 3 – 10 love our two-person glider! Often an item that doesn’t come with the initial purchase when your kids are tots, this is a great accessory for your kids as they grow. Children love to swing with friends and with a weight limit of 350 pounds an average-sized adult can take the opportunity to swing at one end with your child!

This swing can be size adjusted for your child’s need, allowing them to develop bodily strength on the buoy ball swing.

Our tire swing is also a great accessory for the summer. 360 degrees of swiveling motion makes this a fun swing for kids who love adventure and excitement!

Tire swings are great for the imagination, allowing kids to believe they are on a topsy turvy pirate ship or flying through the air.

Swing Set Accessories for Toddlers

Speaking of pirate ships, our telescope and binoculars are a favorite with just about every binocular accessory for swing setstoddler I’ve ever met.

Stand at the other end and make a silly face or just point out nature in your yard for kids to look at.

These two accessories make your play set an imagination station for your toddlers and pre-school set.

The disc rope swing is perfect for kids of all ages. While the tots may not be able to swing on it properly, they love, love, love pushing it empty around the swing set or tied to a tree.

When she was a toddler, my daughter loved to tie her dollies to the disc rope swing and push them around. Now, she spins to her heart’s delight. This is one of those accessories that grows with your child.

A steering wheel on your play set adds another layer of enchantment. Turn your backyard into a race car, a school bus, or mommy’s car with this guy!

Make Your Swing Set New for Spring!

Whether all you do is clean up your safety measures or add a layer of fun to your swing set, this is a great time of year to do it. Time spent on the play set will be treasured memories for your kids for years to come.

Our Cocker Spaniel puppy has learned to climb the ladder of the Circus Deluxe up to the landing and goes down the slide on his own. I have a video. Kids love the playset. Thinking of adding on the horizontal ladder this year for arboreal swinging exercises.
