swingers.

Standard

not one of them is actually sitting on a swing

but it makes a great jungle gym.

—

“infinity imagines curiousity from the wild abyss –

only the child makes a swing-set view of the world upside down.

unwatched truth is the enchantment of childhood.

and we never grow out of it…”

Children are so inventive in their play! This looks like a lot of fun, more fun than “a barrel of monkeys!” 😊 🐒

I remember attempting to go so high that I could swing up and around the horizontal pole, Beth. Never made that goal. I guess I should add fortunately to that statement. 😮

I always love the eay kids enhance
the benefits of a toy or apparatus. When
first introduced they’ll play with it’s intention and then…… let the creativity begin!!
Great pic! of the joy of being a kid!

Your words remind me of the Robert frost poem, Birches. One of my favorites, especially the last few verses.

It’s lovely to see children playing at any time isn’t it – and being so creative is a special treat to observe. Love to see pictures of summer right now 🙂

Our swingsets were always vessels, ships, rockets…..we used them to get places.

And they are missing so much. A swing was where I first learned to fly.
