Whenever you think of your childhood, swings are one of the things you would distinctly remember and the exhilarating feeling of being high up in the air. Every kid feels the same, and that’s one of the reasons it is one of the favorite things to play accessories. Not just the kids, even a grown up enjoy it equally. Don’t you agree? And even though if you have limited backyard space, you must have your very own swing set.

Why have swing sets at home?

• The kids can play at home, and you will not need to drive them to neighborhood parks. They can play anytime of the day and can access them all by themselves.
• Swing sets can elevate the aesthetics of your home, giving it a homely feel.
• Additionally, it could be a good prop to have when you throw a party at home. You can organize games around it or let the kids be engaged while the adults socialize.

Which swing sets to choose?
Here’s some information on the various types of swing sets available that could help you make a definitive choice.

• DIY swing sets:  Have a sturdy branch in your backyard, then get some rope and suspend a wooden, metallic or a plastic seat to create a swingset. An easiest DIY option, this budget-friendly gives a pleasantly rustic appearance to your backyard. Just ensure you use robust materials to build it.
  Similarly, you can make a rope swing, which just needs a strong rope tied to a stable tree branch. This is easier and can be more exciting for the kids and grown-ups alike.
• Porch swing sets: Conventionally made of wood, the seat is bigger and more like a bench. Primarily for adults, the swing’s chain is permanently mounted to the porch ceiling. The bench is wide with a minimum seating capacity for three people and could have an armrest on either side. This is an excellent replacement for rocking chairs or gliders outdoors.

There are  numerous variants of swing sets, but these are the popular ones best suitable for a home.
