My kid does gymnastics so he would love a trampoline and ninja set (rings/bar) workout stuff. Sadly our small yard doesn't permit it

Absolutely untrue. My 13 year old loves swinging while listening to his music. I'm trying to find a new swingset that will continue to support him as he gets bigger (he's already 125lbs).


It’s so common and normal you can’t find a swing set to accommodate him?


Maybe they’re looking for a small one or single swing? Because I’m a bit heavier than him and can swing just fine on our run of the mill kids playset.

Fire pit. Big grassy area for laying out in the sun, rough housing or playing in the snow.

How are you guys doing basketball setups in your backyards? Is there some reasonable/affordable way to set up a hard surface over grass, or are you all paving it or something? I can't figure out how we could possibly do this in our backyard but the kids would probably like it so I'm interested in options.

Both are great and get a lot of use. We got ours on Craigslist awhile ago.


How much did you pay for it? Is it easy to move?

Firepit. Or solo stove.
