Today's children are too happy to stay inside, watch TV and play video games. Numerous government studies show that America's children are becoming increasingly overweight due to inactivity. To encourage your children to become more active, a backyard swing set is a great way to motivate them.

You can customize backyard swing sets in many ways to keep your kids interested for years. You can also have them built on-site and delivered to your home fully assembled. This saves you the hassle of trying to put everything together. You can choose from wood, vinyl, or painted playsets. They will last for years and offer safe outdoor activities.

Maintenance-free backyard swing sets are the best. For residential use, make sure the playset is made of pressure-treated lumber that is safe for children. Vinyl playsets are more durable than wooden backyard swing sets and generally cost more.

Your imagination is the only limit to how you can configure your backyard swing set. You can purchase pre-built models that include slides, swings, and a playhouse. These can be added to trapeze bars, gliders, sandboxes, and climbing walls. You have many options when it comes to the types of slides and the size of your playhouse. Plastic material will reflect sunlight and keep slides cool in summer.

Playhouses built on top of backyard swing sets can either be fully enclosed or open with a roof or cupola. A picnic table can be built into the playhouse for the children to enjoy lunch.
