[quote=Anonymous]Everything changes at age eight. After that, your playground becomes a rotting tinder box. We got rid of ours as it was seldom used. Ironically, our neighbors are building one and their kids appear to be around eight and I want to warn them, but, oh, well! When kids turn eight (around when their permanent teeth come in), they get on this mission to distance themselves from all things little kiddish and are drawn towards how the middle schoolers are dressing and acting. To them, playgrounds are for little kids. They also gain a lot of weight at that time and its scary to see them on a swing set, especially since they also get more daring and mischevious and want to see how high and how loud they can make the swing set creak and rock. You might be able to squeeze a couple more years out of your playground if you have younger neighborhood kids who stop by and visit alot. [/quote]
