Outside play is so important to us. We know that the fresh air and clean canvas of inspiration that being outside gives kids is so important to their development, that we make it a priority to spend as much time outside as we can. Thanks to the Oceanview Wooden Swing Set from Backyard Discovery™ we no longer have to travel farther than right outside our front door for the girls to enjoy some swing set fun. This is a sponsored post.
Emmy has had this dream in her heart for a long time… to have a swing set right outside her front door.
Pete and I would always tell her that maybe someday we would get one… but then life would get in the way and before we knew it she was 5 years old and we realized we’d been saying that for years. She was a good sport about it and would casually mention it here and there.
And then one day last week this happened:
Words can’t begin to explain the joy she is feeling! She hollered as she ran towards her new Oceanview Wooden Swing Set saying “this is the best day of my life”! I totally get her happiness. Swing sets really are that awesome. From the moment she wakes up (between 4 and 5 am!) the first thing she asks us now is “when will the sun be up so I can go play on Swingy”? Yes, she even named her swing set!
“Swingy” has been the talk of the town. My parents were cordially invited over to meet “her” and Emmy has already hosted a midday tea/picnic with Ashley in the clubhouse! She has been playing on it before school, after school, and before bed each day. I’ve been bringing my laptop outside while she plays and I think we are both benefiting from the fresh air and fun!
I love having our new Oceanview Wooden Swing Set because it is fun and healthy play. Last night I had to remind Maddie that it was dark and it was time to come inside. She was enjoying it… swinging back and forth while reading a book for school. Swing sets are also a great way to get the kids off the video games, plus they encourage much more imaginative play.
One of the biggest issues that kept us from getting a swing set before was the aesthetics of it in our yard. I didn’t want a metal one because it would stand out awkwardly. Wooden swing sets are much more fun and look better than metal swing sets. We all think that this swing set is beautiful. My dad couldn’t believe how amazing it looked and the details that went into constructing it.
There are so many fun things to do and play with on the Oceanview Wooden Swing Set.
Emmy’s favorite things are the open, airy clubhouse, monkey bars, swings, the 10’ wave slide, and the hammock!
Ashley has been enjoying the challenging monkey bars that lead on to the 5’ high upper deck.
While Maddie has been spending tons of time swinging back and forth. I love seeing her act more like a kid again!
It comes with lumber that is pre-cut, pre-drilled, pre-stained so that you can start installing it right away!
The Oceanview Wooden Swing Set is available at Sam’s Club, Amazon and on their website.
That hammock is one of the coolest additions to a swing set that I’ve ever seen (and my daughter would Love to spend her afternoons there, reading in the sunshine while watching her brothers slide down the slide. Over. And Over. ; )
the monkey bars
My daughter has outgrown her toddler swing and would love this.
My nephews would love this!
Amazing swing sets! Wish I had one, growing up. Would love for my boys and all my little nieces and nephews tohave one to enjoy. Fantastic!
My son would love having this in the backyard to swing with.
That is a beauty!! the one in our back yard has been through a lot and I’m wondering if it’s safe anymore… needs more than a coat of paint.
My son would Love the slide.
the slide indeed would be a well used one.
This looks great! I would love to have one for my little guy who is finally beginning to enjoy sliding and swinging.
My daughter would love the monkey bars. She has been asking for a play set for so long and she would have so much fun on really any part of the structure. I know my son would love the hammock and slides.
My girls would love every part of it. They love to swing and slide and climb like monkeys. I would never be able to keep them inside if that was in our yard.
They would love the swings and the slide!
He would love the slide
They would love to have a slide in the backyard.
My little would love this because she is super active!
I love the steps the most! The kids love the fun slide!
My daughter would love the “clubhouse” part the most, I think. She’d love looking out from the “top of the world”!
They would love that there would be something for all 6 of them to do, and be plenty of room!
This would burn up a lot of energy of my 5 year old!!
My three kids would love the stairs and hammock! My little girl would be ecstatic over the clubhouse and my boys would love pushing their little sister in the swing too. I could imagine many pretend play ‘ the knights freeing the princess’ reenactments on this! Such a great prize
My son would really love this swing set! He doesn’t have one and would love to use the slide. He’s all about the slide!
Wow! This would be a dream come true if I could win this for my son. I always have a to take my son to the park so that he can use the swing set. He’s a traditionalist and he would love to just swing. His face lights up when he does this. It makes him so happy.
My son would love the hammock and the slide! Our neighborhood park doesn’t get taken care of so he would love playing in our backyard if we had this.
They would love the climbing and swinging!
I have 5 children so every inch of that swing set would be a favorite to someone I’m sure.
My grandchildren would be in heaven with this awesome Set in the backyard!! Thank you for this opportunity 🙂
My kids love to swing, and also the slide.
My oldest loves climbing and sliding so her time would be spent on those. My youngest can’t get enough of swings and would be over the moon to have her own haha!
Looks like a great swing set.
My nieces and nephews would love this! We can’t go by a park without my nephew wanting to stop to use the slides and swings.
They would love the swings, the hammock, and the slide.
The kids would have hours of fun on this swing set, thanks for the chance.
My kids would love everything about this amazing set!!!
She would go on the slide ALL DAY LONG!
My son would absolutely love this! He loves the outdoors but as of now we don’t have any outside toys 🙁
My nephew would love this. Might have to set up my own hammock and join him.
Ours was ruined in a huge storm two years ago. They love to be outside and playing so this is what they really want for Christmas!
I’ve been wanting a nice set like toys for a while
Awesome swingsets!
Call it, The Season of Giving, but I see this as an incredible opportunity to donate to a worthy cause…Wounded Warrior Homes? Or, perhaps a single parent in the community that a reputable local charity could direct me towards??? #PayItForward
My kids would love it!!! They love to swing!! Favorite thing to do at the park!!
My children would love this so much! Fingers crossed. Happy Holidays everyone!
My Grands would climb like monkeys on it!
We have been wanting to get a swing set since moving into our home back in February. We have the perfect back yard for it. I loved reading your review on this set, and I think it would be perfect for my 3 children.
Outdoor play is so important. My grandmother said that kids should play outside at least 15 minutes each and everyday. She used to bundle up here children (one of which was my mom) even in the worst elements& take them out for a bit. I try to do the same with my own kids, but feel that I am a better outside mom from Spring-Fall. Not so much a winter person. My kids love the snow though, so I just have to bundle up and grin.
Thanks for the great review and giveaway!
We’d love the swing and slide best around here!
My son would love the sliding board.
My little sister is 8 and would love this to play on!
My girls would love the swings. They would swing all day if they could. They love going to the park and playing. This would be great to have. They would love being able to go to the back yard to play on the swing set.
My stepdaughter would love swinging!!!
