Mother Nature was teasing those of us who live in the Northeast. Last week we were treated to some gorgeous -- gorgeous weather. Temperatures in the low 70s, bright sun -- it felt like May! And yet today, on the first full day of spring, what do we get? Snow today and cold, dreary days for the rest of the week. Ugh.
Still, I will not let the weather get me down. Spring will be here soon enough, offering plenty of sun-soaked afternoons.
One of our favorite ways to spend a warm-weather day is simply playing outside on our wooden swingset. With three kids aging in range from nearly-2 to ten, we need something that works for everyone. That's why I'm a fan of the selection from Backyard Discovery (compare prices). From simple structures with swings and slide, to elaborate play spaces that include covered forts rock walls and lemonade stands, there is enough to keep every member of your family entertained -- even you!
Each set is made of cedar, chemical-treatment free and is insect, decay and rot-resistant, so you can be certain your investment will last a long time.
Prices range from about $300 - $1,800 depending on the make and model.
Do you have a swing set in your backyard?
