Since we aren't going to be traveling much this summer, we decided to spend the money beefing up the kids swingset. We've just added a new slide ($65-100 at Lowes & Home Depot), trapese ($10 on sale).
But what I'd really like to add is another wooden tower connected by a ladder bridge! I bought this cool laundry pulley and neon rope for a bucket the kids can use to bring snacks and things up and down from the fort. ($6). And for an extra 80-100 you can buy an extension for the slide that makes for a cool water slide.
Found a little turtle sandbox with cover for the baby to put under the first tower and we'll build a little railing around it to keep her away from the swings.
Keeps the kids AND DAD out of trouble!
