Back to the Basics of Fun: Tree Swings
I have 4 kids, 3 of them are old enough head out in the backyard an romp and stomp around. They have all kinds of light sabers, bikes, a trampoline, ipods, Nintendo DS and the list goes on and on...any sometimes, even with all these mordern toys and games, they are still looking for something to do. I am here to help put an end to all the whining and complaining that there is nothing to do. The solution is simple. Around our house, the most laughs and uncontrollable bursts of joy come from a piece of rope, tied to a branch with something to sit on. Simple as that. The ClassicTree Swing.

Tree Swings in Action
Warning: Try this at Home
One of the most requested outdoor fun activities is an "Underdog" on the Tree Swing. You begin the underdog by usually pushing from the back. It is done on the count of 3 pushes, on the third push, the pusher runs all the way underneath the person on the swing to give them maximum height.
This is a tame example of an Underdog, in fact it is a reverse underdog. You usually push from the back and you have a lot more height and velocity.

The Simple, Yet Fun Disc Swing
A Sure Bet
Having trouble finding the right swing?
My wife looked several different places for a tree swing and did not have any luck. We had a tougher time tracking one down than we thought we would. So, here is our effort to help have a tree swing in every backyard around the world. Or at least yours.
These are the classic disc swings. That is what we went with and I think we are in our third year. It was worth every penny.

Toddler Tree Swings
Not quite ready for the disc swing?
Our youngest just turned 1 and is not quite able to sit on the disc swing and hold on for the ride. So, we got him a swing that is a bit more his speed. He absolutely loves it. Toddler and Infant tree swings are soothing and our little one has dozed off a few times in his. He loves it. Here are a few like what we got for the youngest, we have the Little Tikes 2 n 1 Snug and Secures. Works great. You will want to check the suggested ages, make sure everyone is safe.

Swings for Moms and Dads
Swinging is good for the soul
Swings are not only for the young in age, but also for the young at heart. Last mothers day my wife wanted a swing for out back patio. So, that is what she got. We can sit on the back patio and watch the kids playing in the backyard. We have all enjoyed it, in fact, used it tonight. No underdogs though.If you need a little swing in your life, at any age, see if any of these might work.
