First, let’s explain the difference between a swing set that has modular parts versus one that does not have modular parts. A swing set that does not have modular parts is a finished play structure. You can rarely add accessories to this type of play structure. A modular swing set allows you to add accessories and options at a later time.
Most parents have difficulty envisioning their three year old growing to be five years old, seven years old, etc. He or she becomes taller, heavier, stronger and demands bigger challenges. When choosing a swing set for your backyard, plan for your child’s growth and their play needs into the future. Choose a play structure that meets your backyard space and budget criteria first. Allow yourself the option of adding those accessories that your child may be too young to enjoy now. That same three year old may not be able to use monkey bars now, but just wait another year or so. Add monkey bars to your modular swing set and your child will have more play options on his playset. You’ve just added real play value to your swing set and helped your child develop more of his motor skills. The same can be said for adding other accessories to your swing set, such as monkey climbers, gliders, climbing walls and more.
